Odyssey's End

When I began
I ravaged from where the serpents lie
Descending on you, barbarians, hunters and the
Gods of sun
Consuming civilisation
My eye, transfixed upon your moon
Reaching out beyond Earth’s loams
Your wars brought me the terror
A terror destined for Theia’s grave
I begin my quest into the universe
I use your curiosities
To reach further
And with your icons
Absorb galaxies into my mind
Conquered races add to my arms
Stretching out into the blackened skies
Searching the edges of existence
The unknown ceases to be
All of space now filled
Knowledge swells inside me
From your world’s promise
I’ve taken all you see
We searched together
Your odyssey’s at its end
When I began we were as one
The clock ticks on
You are left and I move on
Your clock ticks on
…our time is done
