I want to leave away from the globe
to travel to heavenly places
that I haven’t met them yet,
on all-luminous planets
that no one ever saw them
My routes seem like dreams in the eternal night
To fill my soul with unprecedented mysteries
who will always be alert my mind and heart
The gloomy darkness be
only a shadow lost in the memory of men
Let there be nothing ugly around me
but only happiness, contentment, peace
To feel this, I am not alone and disappointed
With luminous entities
strange but beautiful cultures
to play the music of my desires
To have no regrets
for the years I lived on Earth
alienated and dreamer
