Well life is fragile

Our occasional encounters

Have got me lost among the stars

Trying hard not to float farther

Out into a distant system

Where time moves different

And now we're a mere

Fifty million years from where we started

I wish we'd never parted

Floating in a chemically rich primordial soup

I'm a single-celled organism, how 'bout you

Too minuscule to eat a whole tostada by myself

Better divide up a couple billion times over now

This cosmic background

Is a pink carnation

Exploding into light

Bedazzled skies

Hidden behind

Huddled shadows in the night

And now they move to the side
