Dust to gather
And build castles made of solitude
As my gloved hand reaches
To depth of darkened sky
In night's absolution
Glittering and cold
Hearts can still sink
In zero-gravity
We all feel so alone
As we wrap in cloaks of black
Listening to heavenly
Melody of crashing comets
You cannot see my smile
As I drift away
Sunshine reflection
On closed spacesuit visor
Frozen tears gather
And shatter into a thousand stars
And build castles made of solitude
As my gloved hand reaches
To depth of darkened sky
In night's absolution
Glittering and cold
Hearts can still sink
In zero-gravity
We all feel so alone
As we wrap in cloaks of black
Listening to heavenly
Melody of crashing comets
You cannot see my smile
As I drift away
Sunshine reflection
On closed spacesuit visor
Frozen tears gather
And shatter into a thousand stars
I wrote this to pay homage to the people who are trapped at home right now. We all feel so lonely and find it hard to see the ending of this. Our freedom and safety are right around the corner. Don't drift away and lose hope.
