Magnesium Dreams

You ever seen a sky so dark on a night so long that there’s no difference between  which way is up and burying your head beneath the earth trying to find some air that hasn’t been turned to breath yet Maybe I was just asleep and unaware that I was there, waiting for these magnesium dreams to take me deep and far beyond what I would choose to seek, as an astronaut turned cave diver feeling my way forward and stubbing my broken toes looking for a sign that I will make it home It was in that pit at the center of all I call myself, when came a star, as the littlest seed, that blinked a supernova and made a light finally bright enough to see the road down is exactly what I need to discover the beauty of universe staring back at me
