Latibule

As I lay under blankets of twinkling stars I can't help but to feel so small in comparison Galaxies await, untouched by the corruption of humans So pure, so innocent, away from this rat race we created I wish to retreat into baren icy wastelands Where no one else dares to venture, in fear The crystals of snow around me my company The stars and auroras, my soulmates Away from this world that we somehow give meaning to Away from the greed and pollution that curse this planet Away from the talons of the evil desires of men Away from the city lights that ruin such charming sights Let me be left there for every eternity that awaits And when I die, may I be reincarnated as a constellation Forever to be seen, but never to be touched Hiding in the overwhelming void, light years away But for now, I simply take refuge in the elements The fierce arctic that drives most away, calls to me instead For every creation of man cannot match the perfection of nature In these divine anomalies I take shelter, and at the end of time, I smile
