Reach the stars

Can you feel the night?

taste the magic of a comet in flight

touch the music, does it inspire insight

fly to the stars with me in an interstellar galactic joyride

Can you breathe the life?

trace the smiles with closed eyes

draw the night, painting stories with your mind

feel the passion of electric lights flaring through dull skies

Fly with me, we can take the next trip to the moon.

on a rocket ship of our design, let us sing a lunar sailors tune

we can explore the wonders as shooting stars soar 

two hearts beating - we dance on worlds never visited before

Come, take a trip with me to a faraway world called destiny

you and I written in stars, it was plain to see

we can watch the two suns rising

as the golden moons dance on the horizon

Let's just coast through the clouds until we find a place

where the air is filled with a sweet taste

a world with colours never witnessed by human eyes

where love lives and hate dies

On this journey of a lifetime will you be my lifeline

my oxygen supply in the cold void of space

will I be all you asked for, can we let go and create a story so fine

will I be your guide? pointing the way to new worlds to embrace

If we sail to the stars, or just sit and observe

will you open your heart to the love that you deserve?

or will you ridicule me for having the nerve

of asking you to explore new inner worlds

For when I look in your eyes, I see a universe with so much to explore

when I hear you talk, I'm taken to a planet in a distant galaxy

where we could be surrounded by alien sounds, but my ears only hear the words you say

when we sit in silence my heart wants to beat out the rhythm of stars millions of miles apart

An orchestra of twinkling broken hearts

when I lie awake you enter my head

and any fear of the dark is replaced with a fear of spending our lives not living instead

I fear for a future where you are on another world

and I am left looking to the stars, at the universe unfurled

I ask for one word, a message in a bottle

to cross the oceans in my mind, for on this island that I stand.

just me and the palm tree for company, I bide my time

I question will you come with me, sail to mars

reply with a kiss in word form, a moment of joy and hope

a single word with which we can visit the places seen only with a telescope

reply with yes and we will take to the stars

 

Thanks For Reading.

Peace & Love.
