If safety's an illusion, it's the best trick in the book. If love's a game, then who makes the rules? Can I spend my nights ankle deep on sandy beaches, just trying to find Orions belt? What if I just whisked myself away on a breeze? I could flow through the atmosphere, faster than a jet engine, louder than a thunderstorm, stronger than steal. Or what if I fell in with the waves? I could crush, crash and roll till my heart explodes. The sound of my breath alone could make the mountains shake with concern. Perhaps I could be infinite. I could prop myself right up in the stars and talk to god. I could say "It's beautiful up here." and he could just smirk, knowing that we're the only ones that know. Maybe I could just congregate with the street lights and pretend we were the very stars themselves. We could believe what ever we wanted. We would never have any problems finding Orions belt.

Finding Orions Belt
