Under the starlit sky

Wandering moon, ebbing the tides

On my balcony, wondering why

Why life attacks from all sides.

Under the starlit sky

I pray everything will unfold alright

On a falling star, draining the clouds dry

I pray it lands on me tonight

Into the starlit sky

I find I’m a speck in the galaxy

I find destiny clicked with the roll of die

I find my anxiety is based on a fallacy

Into the starlit sky

I realize that life is a scheme

I dream of birds that cannot fly

I see it’s all a dream, a movie scene

Under the starlit sky

I return from the ether, I see his smile

The moon’s blessing, no longer wry

His smile is a reflection of mine, for a while.
