Urban Starry Night

Twinkling in the darkness, these city lights, a galaxy at our finger tips

Maybe that’s why we keep building you, cause our childhood dreams of going to the moon feel closer

The glimmering sparkles Paint an urban version of Van Goh’s “Starry Night”

Skyscraper milkyways and neon labeled planets

Headlight shooting stars and street light moons

Traveling to the outskirts to overlook this galaxy.. silence, like watching an old movie. It brings a subtle peace and calm, there’s beauty in the chaos

Each glow like an angel's halo, maybe that's why you're the city of Angels 

Reflecting on the simple illuminating flickers scattered in the deep dark, allows you to breathe and reflect for that moment as you forget everything you were and every worry you had. Like someone went supernanny on your brain, organizing , allowing for clear thoughts

And as we look out we make wishes on the urban stars we've created, which is maybe why we made them, So we’ll have more chances to wish upon a star 

Eyes closed the end of the summer breeze, gently breathes through my skin and takes my anxiety away, I hear space ship bustle and moon police

Taking a step out of the galaxy to observe its beauty through your eyes telescope, can simply make you feel as though your own world has paused. As to let us see this meteor shower of our Urban Starry night.

Buildings for miles with thousands of flickering lights of early birds going to sleep or night owls awakening

An urban galaxy never fully asleep, partial insomnia from the constant commotion and so, this skyscraper zombie reminds me I need to take my spaceship back to that commotion and join the ones who've managed to get some sleep or maybe join the nightowls lost deep in ponder.

So I take one more breath, and watch the end of my silent motion picture of the galaxy we live in. The wondrous, beautiful, mystery..
of our Urban Starry Night.
