Empty Space

With quiet words I lead you in
Through light and dark, through smooth and rough
And slow, like sap, beneath my skin
The empty space will call my bluff

A twirl of bright spots, black behind
Each relapse brings new hues of light
But still that one star shines so kind
You pull away with all your might

Distance shores I wish I'd find
Unexplored by more than space
Like planets show my fate's aligned
Your eyes are lost without a trace

Each move you make could be your last
The black won't forgive, watch your step
Goodbye, my love, my air will pass
I look around, there's nothing left
