Galactic Beast

A beating heart sounds in the darkness

Rivers of time rush by but i don't move

Everything is still but running

An inhalation, an aching tomb

In a cave water drips

no words come from trembling lips

A million years go by and i barely blink

I've thought all the thoughts there is to think

stalagtites inch down from the ceiling

but they crumble where I do not

I've finished every mental battle I ever could have fought

Every moment passes

without change

Every second is precious

yet all the same

a steady beat but no one hears

indefinitely there is nothing to fear

forever i am floating here

colors transverse upon the walls

beaming rays, ancestors call

Forests die, the virus grows

i watch the endless pictures show

i see it coming, but no one knows

I uncover blind eyes and hidden foes

i have waited eternity here in the black depth

watching cloned life and advancing death

an exclamation, a single breath

projections of arrows pass

a dying tide, seconds last

a heart beats in the deep

a perpetual witness, an infinite seed

everlasting and never freed
