goodnight my dear

by orange_4_m - Sagittarius

when the horizon meets
with the painted blaze
everlasting
and breathtaking.
when it slowly, falls asleep
awakening a new child
to sing a lullabye and
gathers its listeners
by millions with lights in their eyes.
when its eyes close for good 
and all you can see is 
the back of its eyelids,
dark,
blind, yet illuminating.
when it outsretches its arms for 
miles and miles 
to hug its land one last time.

then goodnight, my dear.
sweet dreams.
