This is the farthest I've ever been
from that moment in time when I held you
And now here I am
On the opposite side of the sun
I look at it and think
If only I could walk through
That nuclear fire and bring you back
safe, happy and whole
I would
But I can't
I'd only burn to atoms
In the process
So I stay on this
godforsaken rock
And wait
While it
Moves me ever closer and farther
from that moment in space
And spirals ever away
from that moment in time
I only hope
That there is a Forever
Where you will finally
be in my arms for good
