I'm drifting...

So far away,

I'm beginning to question gravity's laws.

I took a leap,

but I'm not coming back down to you.

Each time I try to get back,

I only drift further away.

I might belong in the stratosphere now,

or somewhere much farther.

But yet...

I still feel you,

like you're living inside me.

Why does the universe keep doing this to me?

Everything I want gets taken away.

Well... this time,

I got taken away instead.

Does the universe want me for itself?

To blend me into the darkness of space

no direction,

no hope,

just endless existence.

A vessel of blood and water

floating through regions unknown.

But yet...

I still feel you.

I still remember your face

like a painting pointed at me.

Your smile shining brighter

than our system's star.

Your touch softer

than the asteroids that bully me in this belt.

I can still feel how you felt

when I started drifting out of sight,

until all you could see

were the clouds

and then nothing.

I know you're still wondering.

Still hoping

that by some kind of miracle,

I'm out here thinking of you too.

Feeling your presence.

But alas...

it won't be for much longer.

The life in me is gone.

My heartbeat stopped.

My eyes closed.

My lungs collapsed.

And now,

I'm spending the last seven minutes

of the last living organ in my body

with you.

And no matter how far I am from you, 

be it planets,

planes,

or dimensions. 

our souls are forever intertwined.

And that...

the universe can't take.
