Child of the universe

Tell me child,

From which monster do you run away when home is your last destination?

From which sprinkles in your thoughts you try to hide?

Which superstitions are holding you back?

Which stars keep guiding you in the dark nights that engulf you in mystery and owl screams? And Do the wolves scare you or they show you the way to the moon?

How deep is your ocean? 

How many tears hang in your chest?

Tell me child, do you let that clock in the wall tell you what time is it?

And if you look to your hands, are they half empty or half full? And that shoes that you bring, are they your size? 

Have you ever looked at me? 

Am I big to you or just a spectrum in your imagination? 
Am I source of concern or am I your relief? 
Do my mysteries bring you to justice or do they condemn you? 

Tell me child!? 

Are we friends sitting in a front door step turned to a sunset in a summer day or are we the enemies like the sailors and the Cape of torments hiding the powerful and scary imaginary sea monsters ready to sink all boats that dare to go so far? 

And if so... Tell me child... Do you dare?
