“I’ll wait a billion light years”

image

“A light that lifts up the world
Into the most perfect peaceful existence
Beyond what words ever could
A touch so powerful
A smile so flourishing
An embrace that makes my home
Unfettered and unstoppable
A perfect definition of bliss
Lost in your absence
Lost even in your presence
Such is the light
One could wait for tomorrow
A year, a lifetime, a billion such lives
Such is the light
That you have,
I’ll wait a billion years
For that bliss to be borne out of my ashes
Even if I fall
Even if all that I have is a silhouette of your faint shadow
But I’ll wait,
A billion years writing for you
Engraving each moment without us
On all those perfect evenings
That we missed being together
I’ll write all those
And I’ll wait
A Billion years, light years maybe
But I’ll wait
For such is that light
That you have.”
