I'll follow you into the dark

It was much, much more than a nothingness.
It was a silence,
and in that silence,
there was us.
And I thought to myself,
if perhaps, just for that moment,
the universe was conspiring to slow time down,
to give us more time.
And I thought to myself,
this must be perfection.

If there's no one beside you when your soul embarks,
I'll follow you into the dark.
