in the sky at night,

that a plane could be a spaceship,
but i want to see the stars so badly
i want to escape this planet and see
the earth from far away
i want to be out of reach
literally out of this world
so much that i let myself
joke around
with the smallest
bit of hope
that someone
is listening.
