The Journey

Journey: The act of traveling through a space from one point to another. A path to be crossed between two fixed points.

To sleep, in the void—that is what I should be doing.
And yet, the ship continues its journey with me, awake.
Earth will become habitable again in a few centuries,
and then, my remains will land upon it.
In this voyage through horizonless landscapes,
I reach out toward memories.
