I felt myself in the universe, It was like the stars above, Took me in as their own. I was at home — I was undisturbed; free. As I wandered the celestial, I was embraced by the void, And loved by the emptiness. I was at peace — I was so careless; blind. And in the warmth of the vast eons, I lost myself in their touch; A lonely, quiet death. I was solus — I was so afraid; caged. Infinity was not forever, By God, did I know better, Still, I trusted the calm. I was naive — I was so hollow; bare. Nothing became everything to me, And who I was disappeared, Claimed by space and vacuum. It was perfect — It was what I wanted. Because, I was loved by the emptiness. And so too, was the emptiness, Loved by me.

I felt myself in the universe, It was like the stars above, Took me in as their own. I was at home — I was undisturbed; free. As I wandered the celestial, I was embraced by the void, And loved by the emptiness. I was at peace — I was so careless; blind. And in the warmth of the vast eons, I lost myself in their touch; A lonely, quiet death. I was solus — I was so afraid; caged. Infinity was not forever, By God, did I know better, Still, I trusted the calm. I was naive — I was so hollow; bare. Nothing became everything to me, And who I was disappeared, Claimed by space and vacuum. It was perfect — It was what I wanted. Because, I was loved by the emptiness. And so too, was the emptiness, Loved by me.
