Cælestibus

Awoken from decades of sleep
Only my mind is conscious
Still corpse floating lifeless
Malfunctioning system
Staring through frosted glass
Stuck in this steel chamber
Frozen in time and space
Cold darkness unknown fate

Years pass
Voice in my mind
Telepathic
Evolution inside
I hear another
Has awakened
Next to me
Frightened, screaming
Try to speak
They cannot hear me
As they slip

Into insanity
Their breath
Is diminishing
Death brings
Their silence to me

Expanse of space, floating past me
Timeless trip, coma of infinity
Pray for death then I'll be freed
Let my thoughts roam in the deepest void

Crash land on a distant moon
Dreams of awakening from this tomb
Breath of alien atmosphere
Alone I stand in a barren land
All others charred in flames
I wander these endless planes
In search of my minds decay
Is this reality, am I awake?

Straying off course
Into a sun so bright
Accepting my end
Enveloped in light

I still lay awake
Imprisoned in my mind
Dreams of escape
End to this flight
Others have left
Let me join them
Return me to sleep
