Longer Than Forever

A shout in the void, a light in a dark place

More elusive than time, more vast than space

Deeper than the thousands of leagues, past the ocean floor

Taller than the steps that lead to heaven's door

Extraordinary I shall be in any shape or form

From the pages of time shall my name never be torn

Wether that be in the hearts of millions or just one

I will be something great before it's all said and done

Before my name is called and my earthly light burns out

I must be something, do something, know something that stands out

It could be the secrets of the universe or to know the embrace of true love

I seek all that lay beyond the imagined, past what you could ever think of

To have my breath taken away, stolen by all that is great

To have a lifetimes of such moments is a fate I'll forever chase
