Through the misty skies I search,
a seemingly endless journey for my eyes to take.
Dancing stars and blackness surrounds,
shrouding the untamed world beneath.
My eyes travel, taking in the sights,
as new shapes and wonders take form.
Distant twinkles and twirls captivate me.
I gaze, unknowingly, at the beauty
that is surrounding me.
Then, just as suddenly as it appears,
it is gone.
I am back in my own world.
Through the musty windows I search,
a seemingly endless journey for my eyes to take.
Dirty streets and blankness surrounds,
shrouding the unloved world beyond.
My eyes travel, taking in the scene,
as ugliness and destruction take form.
Distant trash and thieves disgust me.
I gaze, unknowingly, at the corruption
that is surrounding me.
And I sigh.
