She wanted to reach the stars
and set foot on her journey
She walked too fast
leaving the world behind
But darkness overcame
and sadness was no shame
the earth still spun
like every single day
and her life just flipped
in every single way
She floated and felt no gravity
Her mouth; dry and
so was her speech
she could see the stars;
but they were still out of reach
The closer she drew
the further they got
and then she thought:
"Is this what I want?
This incessant chase,
this persistent race?"
Was all of it worth
leaving the world?
she felt weightless,
and saw her soul
rise outside the lifeless
body, that she just left.
Hazy was her vision
Now forming a bokeh
of that once vivid mission,
of all those wonderful stars
that she wanted to once reach.
Did she lose her way,
did her path change?
Was this the revenge
the world was taking?
For she followed no norms,
And moved un-breaking
Surrounded by twisted dark skies
Against time and herself
In a mad race, she flies
She tries to finish
What she started once
Will she stop and turn and look,
at all those things that
could have been hers?
and all those things she mistook?
Will she soar high, or sink,
Into the waters of disappointment and un-accomplishment?
