Transcendentalism

The sky, a painted ceiling which rolls unfettered
timeless as the stars but with a dusky transparency
that draws our eyes to heaven with a yearning:
to get a glimpse of the divine, to get a glimpse of home.

I dream of the day when the soul inside the husk
may soar unchained through the suns, and nebulae, and cosmic debris
to meditate amongst the stars
and comprehend the universe within the we.

We are all very old souls, and the person who you identify as "I" or "me" is nothing more than the physical representation that we are conditioned to respond to, once freed of the mortal coil, this is no longer a concern.

this is nice as well. I like how it maps out to give a very astrological feel!

Thanks I'm really flattered that you dig this one. Out of all of my poems this is by far my favorite. I'll send you a not answering your questions since its a bit of a long winded response. :)

You have an excellent way with words, imposing (or creating) a very dreamlike quality.

I like it.

Wish that I could cry
Fall upon my knees
Find a way to lie
About a home I’ll never see

You're welcome.
