Literature Text

A spaceship to the stars stream
With lights like gemstones
A snowflake in the astral
Between the bars and bones

Charcoal to the paperless art mould

The surface cold and brimming
With icicles like knives
A painful looking castle
To move across the skies

But past the locket will you look inside?

Oasis shining
Golden like the suns we saw
Endless timing
To see the worlds and what we want

A sleek and silent clock face
With arms around our necks
Will slumber in this empty
Excuse for absences

Without a gauge to tell me what I miss

An arch without a doorway
A canvas without art
There is no place to follow
There is nowhere to start

So set a course and take with you my heart

Oasis shining
Golden like the suns we saw
Endless timing
To see the worlds and what we want
Oasis waiting
For the two of us to go
Wherever we need
And wherever you lead I will follow

And wherever you lead I will follow

Wow, no one's commented? This is wonderful! I love the imagery and the idea of beautiful exploration but the loneliness of it as well. I would love to hear the tune as well.
