I’ve set my sights on eternity Traversing through all that’s ever been A light that leaves never to return Far away I wish to go to the far beyond Bringing the light into the endless dark Though hidden and never may be seen One day I swear I’ll find you There is no way of knowing where I’ll land Into the eyes of worlds yet unborn? Or to a place that will never be Far away? And I'll emerge as if with no mass Revealing shadows hidden from the past Lasting for eons come But gone in an instant flash And though I know I may never find An ending to what has once begun To leave behind a fading light Beyond the endless void I slip away and shall remain Alone and yet by the billions There is a story that is left behind That falls like sand beneath the hour glass and slips away through eternal void Seek for me Seek my presence Seek my essence Seek for me Seek for me Seek for me by Aaron Gage
