dreaming under stars


because i cannot sleep with mine eyes closed, i shall dream looking at the stars

so in this moment is what i ‘will’ myself to be, in heart, of mind and spirit, i wish

to be a month from now, a year and beyond, until my feet no longer walk upon the

ground on this Earth


mine eyes have remained open most of this nocturnal stay when

most lay to rest, sleeping soundly while the moon smiles on to their nest
as the stars glitter at play, and dreams to their assay


i take this sleepless moment to cogitate and introspect and a

desire to transmutate into what i must become, which is a spirit

to change for better to those who with me, choose to be
