Into infinity

A quiet whisper moves inside my chest,
a thin thread pulling both of us higher.
Through years, past towns the stars have dressed,
our love has never learned a wire.
Each moment opens like the first time
we held each other and forgot to speak.
Above us burns a small, persistent light,
and dawn keeps walking just ahead of us.
Into infinity, into infinity,
love carries us without adding weight.
Into infinity, into infinity,
its warmth is simply how we stay.
Into infinity, into infinity,
you and I, and nothing else between.
Into infinity, into infinity,
where the waves keep rising, clean.
Our hands reach out and hold the space
between us like a quiet bridge.
The stars above us strike their notes,
and every hour with you begins again.
Warm light returns and sets new wings
against our shoulders, light as breath.
High where the stars have nearly gone still,
our love does not grow thin or leave.
Into infinity, into infinity,
love carries us without adding weight.
Into infinity, into infinity,
its warmth is simply how we stay.
Into infinity, into infinity,
you and I, and nothing else between.
Into infinity, into infinity,
where the waves keep rising, clean.
