Cosmic Longing: Un Amore Irraggiungibile

Everyone flying high above the clouds
A gasp and I fell on the ground
my blue ink is now red, glittering with tears
their blue ink fought the great war, the real winners
pain for evermore caused by the dagger
a dream so grand, an epic defeat
a search party sent into the woods
I pray now & then to rise
a latibule to reverse the augury 
ended up in a chimera
someone set fire to the woods
suffering from asphyxiation 
learnt about the twinkling lights in the sky
learnt about the script that was never mine
I dreamed to be so high, stargazer is just a word now
my dream shattered, I cried
an excruciating pain
