Cognac and Fireworks

I want to be a supernova
As bagpipes float through the darkness
Let me expand into the night.
I want to stargaze with you
We'll fly there together
Forget the world.
Racing through the night
We'll leave the earth behind
Speed past Venus
Past Mercury
Straight to the heart of the sun.
You and me, hand in hand
We'll pass beyond
Out of orbit
Faster and faster
Spinning through galaxies like fountains of dust
Laughing with the ecstasy and the thrill of it all
We'll go beyond the point of safe return
Go until we burn out
Keep racing on and on
Reckless and giddy
Drunk on adrenaline
Overwhelmed by the mind-bending blackness.
Fly to the planets with me.
Race until we explode in a chrysanthemum of flame
Laughing into oblivion.
Accelerate until out material bodies
Can no longer contain our exhilaration and joy
Keep gaining speed until we can hold ourselves together no longer
Until we are overcome by our happiness
And the white-hot emotion
Bursts forth
An explosion bigger than you could ever know
Leaving a vapor trail of dazzling sparks
In the ebony sea of stars
We fizzle out and become the night.
We'll light the universe
As we fall
Out of time
And out of existence.
