ETERNITY

ETERNITY

I watched the waves,

Lash against the rock,

As if the rhythm,

Was set by the clock.

And I know this will go on and on,

Even after you and I are gone.

And as the setting sun,

Went down the horizon,

Before the day gave rise to the night,

I stood alone in the twilight.

And I know this will go on and on,

Even after you and I are gone.

And as I held a fistful of sand,

Slowly and steadily,

It slipped from my hand,

Marking time, my destiny.

And I knew this will go on and on,

Even after you and I are gone.

And I gazed as I lay,

I could not but wonder and sigh,

What lies beyond the milky way,

And the million lights that lit the sky.

And I know this will go on and on,

Even after you and I are gone.

And as I trudged along the sand,

In my search, on my quest,

For a sight of that distant land,

Where I seek my eternal rest.

But I know this will go on and on,

Till you and I are gone.

But when I sit and close my eyes,

Something beckons me deep inside,

Where all my senses seem to freeze,

And in total bliss I reside.

Now I know that this is where,

You and I will be there.
