it pulls to the edge of the world

as we race to the edge of the land

our feet sink into white sands

as the sun sinks into the sea

rippling emerald waters

stretched out before us

converging with the sky

in the curve of the horizon

glowing orange in the distance

growing darker every minute

and here rotation slows

existing in the deep glow

we let it linger, we let it burn

further in our flesh, further in our minds

leaving its mark, scarring inside

its radiance engulfed by the tide

saturating all our senses

the light turning us blind

we are consumed by infinite space

our atoms ablaze in flames of the sun
