Eternal Drift

Silent void, echoes of a distant fight

Shadows dance in space's endless night

Drifting alone through cosmic debris

Haunted by the screams of the fallen, memory

Wreckage whispers tales of yesterday

Lost among stars, forever astray

His thoughts drift home, to the love left behind

Whispers of laughter, fragments of time

A beacon gleams, flickering in his mind

A last hope fading, colors undefined

Fading into the black, where no lights reside

A lonely soul adrift, with nowhere to hide

Echoes of a battle, lost in the echoes of space

Holding onto love, in this eternal embrace

Eyes grow heavy, visions collide

Faces of stars, and tears he can't hide

Closing his eyes, surrender to the night

In the cold silence, he fades out of sight

A distant glow, drawing him near

The light of hope and fading fear

As darkness claims its rightful place

In the endless, silent, eternal space
