An Explorer Of Space

I have stood on this shore in constant threat, too disheartened, undecided and torn apart staring at the unreachable, horizon so shiny: trusting my instincts, reciting words of faith; deliriousness is not a rapid leap into eternity, no existence is more valorous than any worth! When nights were blurry and brilliant moonlight was too scarce, I shivered from fear and plight, not from the absolute absence of light and profound silence; and as an owl with florescent eyes, it increased my demise! I even penetrated the forbidden and opaque darkness with my insolence to stir unrest among noisy crickets; I trod and tripped on branches torn by the wrathful storm, I bore bruises and cuts, screamed aloud making deer roam! It occurred to me that no human can solve intricate mysteries, I wanted to defy this concept and delve deeper in all possibilities, but like others in mad pursue, I got disappointed and called it quits; anyone with common sense can't fight those invisible demons! I can reach other planets on a speedy rocket, be an explorer of space, take snapshots; draw maps for future conquest if any, I'm praying I'll encounter no aliens of any kind; the barrier is not the language but the weird words they'll say aloud... I'll be overpowered by their presence and remain stupefied: I bet they are more human than us and will treat me fairly!
