Have you ever looked at the sky,
Way late in the night,
And thought back on your life?

At first seeing nothing,
Until you start looking,
And then seeing everything.

Stars, planes, the moon.
Disappearing so soon.
Much different than at noon.

And thought,
How you feel caught,
And how you sought,

To be like a bird,
Able to get in a word,
Like the leader of a herd
