I’d Trade Eternity To See Another Dawn

My soul seeks
eternity, a simple
end free of sign
and connotation
lent to daily deeds –
temporal schemes
and fleeting dreams
which wallow in a
night that never
really ever ends.

Thankfully
we came to an
agreement where
we share a dream
and vision equally,
the madness waits
abated out beyond
the Great Beyond –

the madness of a
single day, forever
one and none
suspended in a
strand that’s
longer than the
thought that
thought it so;

my soul will go
and I remain –
I said I’d trade
eternity to see
another dawn.
