following the stars
that brought me here
beckoning
sleep now
there's nothing
more to do
than trace the paths of glory and defeat
both gained and lost
and listen to the music of the stars
feeling a symphony all its own
but
if i should go to orion
to leave my earthly world to another orb
then at least
i know i
have soared through the night
and touched all i
could feel
like being
wrapped in moonglow
and fantasy and
shining wonder
believing in
tomorrow's brighter hue

without dreams
the weight of life
is heavy

I do love the way this flows. I think of a dark night with the sky covered in beautiful stars and moon. Such serenity and peace. And although I understand how dreams can take us away from our troubles and the pain of life, I don't care for them as much. I guess maybe because my dreams are often unpleasant. You may not be speaking of dreams in the literal sense, but even so... I have a hard time going there.
I wish I could reach out like you do. You certainly know what it means to relieve the heaviness of life. I have yet to find that balance. Maybe some day.
Such a refined and elegant write, as always.
you overrate me, and my "balance", but thank you as usual. :)
You know, Peter, I'd like to think I gauge you pretty well. I don't overrate people, especially not you or your poetry. You're amazing, so just accept it.
As far as your balance, I think it's the years you have on me. =D
And you're welcome, always.
it's true, i'm amazingly old.
You're amazingly impossible.
