To Reach That Horizon

Many times I stood idle and silent on this same shore at dawn, staring out at the unreacheable horizon torn by a disheartned feeling; and in spite of discouragement its distance became more real! When nights were blurry and the appearance of stars was so impossibly remote... to make me aimlessly grope: the growth of doubt relied on instincts, to let darkness uncover that mystery! To reach that horizon, possibility needs to be reconsidered to let this undecided spirit venture and take me from this dark shore to the blueness of another sky; to reach that horizon... courage must surpass fear, and my perception must be clear... foreseeing the events that will follow without interfering or asking why! Many nights I sat on the edge of the foaming rocks, trying to get a step closer to those intangible stars... always intercepting my message and making wait me like before! To reach that horizon, I should stimulate the interest of all the introvert stars; to interrelate and be heard! To reach that horizon... I should demand their confidence, not be hesitant or fightened into telling me the stark truth!
