I sat here awhile,
Trying to find reason,
Why I should remain where I am.
There’s so much out there,
I haven’t touched.
I needed to make a new plan.

Rising from this bench,
Where I have spent
Too many days in the dark
I’ll take a leap of faith,
And head for the stars.
It’s time for me to make my mark.

The universe is calling to me
I need to go,
I just can’t wait.
It’s been too long,
Since I was free.
The galaxy, opened its gates

Onward, I will take my soul
Find the path
Laid out, I can see.
The sky’s the limit,
There’s nothing to stop…

Me… from being me.

It was November, and the chill in the air was not from the cold…

Night fell across the snow covered mountains, but something felt strangely different, something was amiss. The orb, which had been glowing so brightly the night before, was no longer glowing at all. It was seemingly a dead rock, just floating in space. Its light had been extinguished, making the Earth much colder than ever before. Even the stars lost their twinkle. The world suddenly turned to black and white.

Not far in the distance, a diabolical laugh, sent shock waves through the mountains…

He had returned.

I took the astral road, at a substantially slower pace

Had it been at light speed, I would’ve missed the splendor

Of the stars, the moon, the heavens, all the ethereal grace

Tis there I often give myself over, in total surrender

Come lie with me
Among the wildflowers
Fragrant with the promise
Of mornings first light

Come lie with me
As sunlight dances upon us
Under skies of blue
And faceless clouds

Come lie with me
Amidst the moonlit shadows
Gently caressing the night
A fantasy of stars
Dancing in the heavens

Come lie with me
And dream
Of yesterdays and wildflowers
Of sunlight and clouds
Of moonlight and stars
And tomorrows yet to come
