Live in fortune now,
For the world is a dark place, Not all have as much Just look around you,
The beauty has been unlocked, As the stars appear. Shining in the midst, Of the everlasting sky, Can you see them now? Or are you blinded, From the beauty that you seek, For eternity? Yet are you not lucky? For their trance is bewitching, To those who seek it. The sky beckons you, With songs of the forgotten, And the enchanted. And then it all stops, But will you answer the call? Or just turn away. To stop the beauty, And its harsh alluring call, Just to escape it? Or will you turn back, To embrace the longing here, Just for a moment? Capability
