Upon the Stars

Stars in the night sky
Out of reach and still a luster in the dark
A gleam among the likes of equal splendid lights
lesser came before to rise above
And in this way you cannot recàll, stuck behind the hype
So many ways the art of yearning for the stars
To float adrift, the sky will swallow up the dreams of many
A sprinkling of what's pretty distracted all that look upon it
Never the chance of seeing nothing else
Only the seeker gazing beyond the scope of the eye
A gem appears to greet its finder not expecting to be found
Still, even darkness overshadows taking back the sky
As so many fades within its grasp before it could be seen
Unsteady, tired, faint, or dizzy as you look upon its glowing wealth
To understand its brilliance with only mind alone, impossible
And forget about the heart's desire for such depths that yield the passion of knowledge
Magnificence,  too much to be experienced in a simple lifetime
