Halley Resurrected

Halley, the sky screams red in your light

Roaring like thunder inflames tonight

If Earths glory ends here alone floating free

I don't think I'll mind if you're the last thing I see

I've heard of your tales from galaxies end

I'd hoped and I'd dreamed that I'd see you again

Solar cries of fume, your combustible disguise

Inferno magnífico to the hearts naked eye

Dreams aren't forgotten, hope carries on

When the blaze dimmers, all life has gone

Cozy under a blanket of the brightest of stars

I'll wait there for you for all of my hours 

If you do ever decide to appear

Resurrect me, set this heart free

It's this that I wanted but never forget 

I'd trade it for you and a moment more yet

The title, Halley resurrected, is the answer to the question of the contradiction of Halley's death in the last chapter titled Halley.

Breakdown of Stanzas:
St. 1 - Obsession "I don't think I'll mind if you're the last thing I see"
St.2 - Praises "I've heard of your tales from galaxies end"
st.3 - Eternal Promise "I'll wait there for you for all of my hours"
St.4 - Eternal Love "I'd trade it for you and a moment more yet"

You have a long wait to see Halley's Comet again. Only visible from earth every 75-79 years, so it will be 2061 when it is visible again. Your words are sublime and your chosen music a perfect match. Your description of this wonder as it hurtles through the sky wonderful. There were other layers creeping in here with other meanings. I very much enjoyed the whole experience. Thank you

I'd be 72 years old, something worth growing old for I reckon. :)

Alas, I would be a dust mote by then. Perhaps I would see it from a different perspective:))

I enjoyed this chapter. Powerful needs and thoughts shared in the words.
"I'd trade it for you and a moment more yet"
I understand the above lines. One more minute with someone you loved. Would be worth a thousand deaths. Thank you Keegan for sharing the amazing chapter.
