mar27::: dark blue nights

tonight I wish
upon stars I cannot see
in a night I spend in my bed
where I pray till I fall asleep
I wish
carefully choosing my words and taming my dreams
I pray
for attainable goals and steps of reality
and in my list
my mind
wanders off to
fly out my window
into the cool airs
in star filled cloudy
dark blue nights
and before I know it
I am dancing on the tip of the moon
reunited with birds
placing stars on my skin
and in between my curls
and in the middle of my responsible
meltdown
music comes from behind
wrapping my waist and shooting me into the sky
to swim in sound
my eyes close to know
this is not forever
this
is not
forever
and I pray like the child who wished to fly in this sky
away from the legs that ached
I pray for my realistic dreams
while I spin in my mind
in the night
and dance on the
face of the moon
I know this place
it sings my
tune
