Space Ambition
I want to defy gravity,
I want to feel the stars, Rembrandt light,
shine like gold on my skin.
I want to soar throughout the clouds,
and when I reach space. My hand will be
the one to grasp the planets and align
them perfectly.
One day I will surf on Saturn's rings,
And breathe in the dust from Jupiter's
storms. And while standing in the eye
of a storm, for a brief moment,
feel time wrap itself around me.
I will contradict Newtons laws,
proving them wrong. I will soar above
the clouds and rest my head on a billow
in the buttermilke nighttime sky.
I'll converse with the moon and
play hide-and-seek with the sun.
When my dreams end, and the
cannon ball of reality comes rushing
back, I know that someday I will reach
that ecstasy, but until my dreams become
actuality, I will just exist in this sublunary world.
