Infinite

I cross a river with no banks
To forests without trees
My loss I seek in this journey
And discontent to please

I think that which did not start
Must surely never end
A drink I take from empty cup
With nothingness I blend

This thought I couldn’t comprehend
This question with no answer
To rot is simply how I grow
My progress is my cancer

From my soul I take the pieces
To seek, to find, I lose
My control is powerless
And Fate is what I choose

The waking hours of my slumber
The dining without food
Light now cowers from the darkness
Invited, I intrude

Forever stretch the time and space
How could they reach an end
When never fades into always
And breaks that static trend

I want to know the truth
But that is just a lie
For now I save my youth
And wait until I die
