I am free falling

Since I slipped off my favourite galaxy

Once upon a starlit night

I know I will hit rock bottom some day

But until I touch the dust

I'm weaving in and out of space

Hair streaming, eyes gleaming

Watching the stars pass by

Between dawn and the dusk

Painting love in the sky

Scattering shimmer along my path

Waiting breathlessly, to explode

In a cloud of dazzling stardust
