For Even Time

I try to see

The line between

Soft edges of unbroken eternities;

The will is there,

But the might was lost

When sharp swords cut seeker from sought.

I will find it one day,

The final act of Dream;

And when the aeon is done, a world will spin away.

As dark sweet silence

Encompasses infinities,

I know that even infinity can never last.

When the mighty dinosaurs lost into disappearance,

When a billion bright sunsets have faded to grey,

The last will be left,

Weeping, bereft,

For their worlds long gone;

But in death there is life,

And even in dusk, there is hope of new dawn.

Why fear for the future? - it once was past,

And will be again - for even eternity can never last.

A billion bright stars

Shine in the sky,

And a billion hopeless voices all whisper, "why?"

Whoever knows the answer

May never speak up,

But still there *is* hope, as always and again:

"Even in dusk, there is hope of new dawn."

When all is lost,

And dark shadows arrive,

Mourning only, in the dark, shall survive.

But in a light space

Between time and Time,

A song will be sung, and light will grace the sky.

Time is over,

And Time has passed,

For Even Time can never last.
