so i drift

so i drift vacant through the stars

wondering listlessly lost aimless

never caring never forcing

just flowing in my sloop to the ends of the universe

born a restless wanderer

remembering all that's been forgotten

forgetting nothing of who i am

never wanting what i had become

seeking the chance to be true to me

i am aim less i am void

i am the past

i am the future

i am all that is

or was

and ever shall be

i am the circle

there is nothing i am not

and nothing is not me

to stand upon the ancient shores

and watch the decaying ruins fall into the sea

i know that is me

that is the future for all that i am

i will die

i will decay

and the universe shall forget that i existed

but in this moment i can do

and i can be

and i can exist for all that i am

i have cast aside the chains that bind me

i have sailed the endless seas

and i will fly free through the endless stars

the universe may forget me

but i will never for get her
