They ask me about what I desire the most.
I tell them,

“I wish to lay on the grass,
under the stars.
Bond with the universe,
think and talk in verse.
Surrender to the beauty so underrated,
soak in it to feel reincarnated.

Gaze into the dark wonders,
and discover enlightening answers.
Flow with the beautiful breeze,
dream about the oceans and seas,
feel liberated and at ease.

Drown in the comforting silence and serenity,
and live in it for eternity.
Close my eyes to the world around,
see a whole new universe I have found.
Open my ears to the beautiful song that the night sings,
relish and cherish every moment it brings.

Watch the shining diamonds hanging from the vast ceiling,
truly live and revel in the inexplicable feeling.
Let go of every sorrow in the heart,
allow the universe to tear it all apart.
Find company with those who can’t speak,
feel free to find strength even when I am weak.

So, yes, I wish to lay under the stars,
on the soft green grass.
Somehow find out a beautiful way,
to struggle, fight and survive, come what may.
