A Walk in the Universe

I once went for a walk
as I often do when I ponder
I began to speed my step
until I broke into a run
down my street I went
then suddenly away I flew
the ground grew distant
and the clouds wisped past my face
beyond the atmosphere I drifted
past the moon I sped
gone beyond pluto I traveled
the stars came closer
soon I left the galaxy
yet I kept going onward
the stretches of space
gave way to infinite blackness
I had left the universe behind
around I turned as it sped away
smaller it seemed to fit my hand
suddenly I remembered
I stood on nothing
with everything in my palm
I dropped the universe
and ran into the darkness
I am running still
