A little off the beaten path
Hidden by a screen of nature
Here we sit
Secreted away from the world of man
Here we are gods
The sky filled with a billion stars
Streaking the sky with their combined light
A sliver of silver moon
A backdrop to our world
Down below the blackest seas
Strips of white coming and going
Smashing against the rocks
Rising up against us
Beaten back eternally
Sitting in a hollow in the trees
Overlooking the cliff
The mountain from which we cast our eyes
Surveying the scene just for us
Here we sit
Here we dream
Here we cry
Here we exist
And everything else
Ceases to be
I look into my looking glass
What do I see?
I see an infinity
An entire universe
All wrapped up in a silver frame
I see the eternal cosmic dance
I hear the great solar winds
The winds never heard before
I feel the heat of a million stars
I see eternity
I see the rise and fall of the universe
I see many races crawl up
I see them all fall back down
I watch mountains blast from the crust of planets
I see nature force them back down again
I look in my looking glass
What do I see?
I see everyone looking at me
