Counting Stars

Bones grow and flesh expands

As millions of moons revolve around millions of planets revolving around millions of stars

And there are people who spend their entire lives counting them, finding them

Others stand enticed in the trance of darkness noticing their light, maybe thinking

Some have never seen a star in their lives.

But as particles move

thoughts flow

and space is overwhelmed with a life of animation and fantasy

I sit tapping a screen

I sit at a desk being told what to think

My existence becomes a mission of routine

When all I really want is to see the stars

I want to see more of infinity and beyond

And I want to become a part of it.
