The stars have always intrigued me

With the stories that they tell

that have possibility

For change,

for something different

once i looked up,

in a dream, 

and i was a star

 a character in the stories

thrown up in to the sky

by a god

then when i looked down the earth was gone

i thought that it was too good, a facade

then i started to fly

oh the feeling of flying through the stars!

i was weightless but centered

almost swimming

In the sea of stars

past the novae 

past the pillars of the galaxy

going to fast the live

but to slow to die 

feeling free

now i just have to wonder 

did the stars welcome me?
