I wished upon a star,
And a sleep so warm and true
Wrenched me whole and up afar:
To the heavens, dark with dew.
In the cold, endless stellar rain,
My tepid dreams, they washed away.
False fleeting dawns and phantom pains
Gave way to starry night and cosmic day.
The simple pleasures which I seek,
Vices which I vainly breathe:
Shackles! Break in a silent sea
Of empty, dustless, dreamless streams.
Lost is the self and imagined boundaries:
Gone is my mind and sense of normalcy.
Hanging paradise clouds keep company,
And the warmth of spiral arms, a galaxy!
I wished upon a star,
And a sleep so warm and true
Brought tenderness to an ailing heart;
And the love of a Universe, too.
