Poetry: At The Speed of Light

In my dreams my soul travels
At the speed of light
Breaking the sound barrier
As it exits my body
My senses are heightened

Traveling out of this world
Burning the atmosphere
Like a comet in space
Time is dead
Along with reasoning

Nothing matters
I am one with the stars
Unified by light
Swooned in darkness
And covered in God's love

Immortal, yes
The first time in life
I see myself for what I am
A flawed human being
I accept my true self

My alarm sends me back
To my tired and weak body
Life has me once again
