Stars &; Galaxies

Lost in the stars and the galaxies bright,
I forget that my life is an endless night
I forget that my soul is a starless void,
That the people I need are those whom I avoid.

As I look at the stars and the galaxies glow,
They bring me some comfort when I feel I don't know
Where my life's headed, where I'll be at the end
When I run out of time to repent and to mend.

I watch as the stars and the galaxies sleep
Hoping I find the peace so deep
That is found when alone in untouched space
Where I can sleep easy-alone-in my place.
