Lights in ever-blooming, deep,
dark indigo.
This city never truly sleeps
at all.
Oh, to find a place, where
space
still opens out into the
stars and galaxies.
Where vastness becomes image,
even as we take it into us,
within these ever-altering
eyes,
that change with each experience.
Distance is suspended then,
as night descends without
an altercation
into all the places that
we seldom
choose to feel - too close,
too real.
Pain, at first enhanced, but
then
its dissipation into ancient
deities,
as stardust bleeds another
tear
from eye to cheek.
Ah, the feel of peaceful night
sublime...
