Light shimmers above me
All the beauty one cannot hold
Stars and galaxies appear
Night sky behold
The Moon silent as before
Different shapes and sizes than the nights before.
Colors sweep by like the trees
Hearing whispers among the leaves
Stars stand still in front of me
As the moon passes me.
The smell of life lingers in the air
A cold touch whispers in my ear.
Tasting the complexity
Now I know what it feels like to be free
Holding the world in front of me.
As time passes by quietly.
