In the space between our realms,
A delicate balance must be found,
She saw through rose-tinted glasses,
While my eyes remained shaded in doubt; profound.
Eternal and infinite is my domain,
Unyielding and unbound by time's mortal frame,
My vision vast, my ambition uncurbed,
A force that shall forever remain.
My power transcends the divine,
An existence beyond the worldly plane,
But with that comes a great and heavy cost,
A burden I must bear and forever sustain.
My soul, calcified by the chaos I command,
Is hardened by the thunder and lightning's sting,
Yet within the eye of the storm, you alone see,
The cracks in my facade, the wounds that still sing.

Amidst our solitude, I pondered
Upon the choices that fate had made
I knew of your unwavering spirit
But still, I yearned for you to have stayed
The fault is mine and mine alone
For I couldn't keep you near
I failed to guide and light the way
Now left alone with sorrow and fear
You spoke of a brighter future
An eternity, an ideal to come
A vision to transcend the mundane
But where do I stand in your sum?
You left behind a lifeless shell,
A hollow memory that I cannot avoid.
I never got to say a proper farewell,
All that remains is a longing and desolate void.

As I beheld the world I had begotten,
I pondered with a bated breath:
Why does your light still shine for me,
Why did you wait a lifetime, defying death?
Don't think that I was blind,
In this boundless chasm of space and time,
I left a morsel of myself for you,
To cherish in a world so newly sublime.
Half a millennium has passed,
And yet you remain,
A constant in my life,
A past that won't wane.
Why do you wait for me,
In this transient eternity?
In our vast and infinite universe,
Where everything fades and dies; fleeting.
