Somewhere off in the distance,
Lies a place my mind drifts off to,
Lost in the darkness of space,
My security,
And secret place.
It is full of color,
Pinks, purples, and blues,
Stars surrounding this shroud,
Shining brightly,
Radiating their light,
As the colors wisp across the space,
As a horse shaking its tail,
And near the center of this place,
Lies a head,
A head that is full of darkness,
Protecting the colors,
Watching over the stars.
Inside this shroud
Full of wonder,
Beauty,
And splendor,
Magnificent with all the secrets,
Violent storms rage within,
Gases exploding,
Stars forming,
Clouds rolling,
And yet there is a sense of tranquility,
Of peace,
And calmness,
A place where my mind travels to,
To it's secret far away place,
That lies beyond the horizon,
In the deepness of space,
Full of color,
Pinks, purples, and blues.
