The Swiss Alps - by Hassan Raza

At night, whenever I’m left to myself, I close my eyes and dream about the arctic heavens, the deep southern sky. I would gather all the energy I conserved during the day so I that could propel myself out of the Earth’s atmosphere. Breathe space, float away into nothingness and catch a ride when the comets come home. A few light years before I meet with my good friend Lupus and his neighbor Centaurus. The three of us would always play, swim in nebulae. But in some corner of this vast unknown in silence face to face, I would tell them all about my dreams and woes. And they would tell me about the things they could remember. Hours and days would go by, speed of light. I would forget that it is not a place I truly belong. The honesty of stars would always pull you along in their orbit. So that you would stay in all eternity, round and round to forget time and delay. But also carry on memories as it may. Before that happens, the Sun will ask you to come home.

The sea of the Heavens is where we are bound

Battle the constellations, come out their master's victorious

Return to your point of origin, let no trial stand against your quest

All that can be is thrown your way, never make it home, never reclaim your desired rest

Your travels long, your heart wiery, no more trials, no more obstacles to stand in your way

Finally, step foot within the realm you belong; yet another problem lies before you

Defeat once more those who hinder your return, scream to the God's above that nothing will stop you now

I am home, I have reclaimed my rightful place where I belong; not even the stars can deny me now...
