Space

The distant words are said

Enticing prose

I’m lying in my bed

Beside the cosmos

Moving slowly planets turning orbiting

The stars

Now aligning and eclipsing everything

Never far

And you know the moon

It only shines to you

Because you wander in the night

Looking up I see the vast expanse of space

Why so dark?

Hear no sound around it shifting size and shape

Left its mark

And you know the sun

Gives life to you

Leaves its black stain on your skin

Now out of view

Like let go balloons
