i once traveled upon a ray of light
lent me by the moon one winter's night

i traveled across the sky as snow fell upon a city
and these snowflakes spoke to me of all the places they'd fallen

but i traveled farther still until i slipped into a fog within a town
and this fog spoke to me of all the streets it'd snaked across

but i traveled ever farther still until i was in the middle of the ocean
and here i spoke to a raindrop that was afraid of heights

but he still had to climb back up every time he fell, back to his cloud
just to fall again

but here in the middle of the ocean
a cloud conversed with the moon

and she took back her ray into the night
thus leaving me with my raindrop friend until we parted ways at the surface of the ocean

where i traveled down into it's depths
and here i met a man named death that was himself afraid to die

but as i slipped out of my cumbersome body
and hand in hand with my newest friend

in a backward glance i saw in my face what i had sought so hard for in life
peace
