As big as life

One day, I'll be big as life on the moon, no need to arrive through a space-bound gate. It’s only a matter of moments soon, when I will escape from this earthly weight. My presence will delight the moonlit air, though I won’t move past its celestial gleam. But truth will be hard for my dreams to bear, So nights won’t remain silent to my scream.
