Mountain Reflections
When I sit atop a high mountain all alone
And feel the cosmos to the bone
I dream of adventures traveling to distant stars
Traversing the dark to make the galaxy ours
If only imagination could take me away
From the trivial goings of day to day
A ship to take me wherever my heart would go
Careless and free entirely without woe
But I lay here in this beautiful place
Forcing me to have to eventually face
The reality of my mortal life
Full of pain and endless strife
If only I could fly away
To follow the travelers simple way
