ad astra

Ad astra

To the stars.

You float above Earth,

Constantly drifting.

They blink around you,

Bright light flickering out and in.

Ad astra

To the stars.

You sigh and watch the planet

It shrinks in size as you grow in distance.

Your hands tremble

You're separated now.

Ad astra

To the stars.

There is no reason for your dreaming of togetherness

For who are you to be together with

If you're floating alone

Amongst stars in the sky?

Ad astra

To the stars.

It has become lonely now,

Quietly, you ponder your self exile.

Was it worth it? Is anyone there to lead you back?

You just wish for someone to see something is wrong.

Ad astra

To the stars.

Someone has reached out and heard.

You are guided back, out of your isolation.

You are anchored. You are safe.

You are sound. 

Ad astra.

Ad astra.
