...this world has more, than I can see

...the night, very clear, everything very calm...everything blurry ...everything clear


i sat in my bed Friday night (early Saturday morning) unable to sleep, unable to close my eyes. It was 3am, and all I could do was think. I could see movement in the darkness, movement that was not there.

I got up out of my bed and decided to do something I have not done in quite some time. I got dressed, and drove off to the "view" up in the hills of Montclair. I was going to be deep, I was going to open my eyes, and see twice as much as I normally see.

I drove through the quiet streets, windows open wide, the only sound...my car humming along. The peaceful feeling, twice as amazing, as I had imagined. No music was playing on the radio. No life...yet everything was alive.

I drove through the hills of Montclair, feeling almost like I was inside my dreams. Funny...it was a dream, long awaited. I could hear birds waking up, and the gravel crackle under my tires. Everything feels intensified, just before the night becomes day. The sky more vibrant, but so often over looked, therefore less acknowledged. It was simply beautiful, all the pictures I have, deep inside my head.

My headlights turned off, showing how dark the sky, yet how bright my world. My entire body shaking, at this beauty, almost like something I never saw.

Is the sky always this beautiful? Everyday, every morning? Does everyone know? This is something that will never be forgotten. The peaceful world, exploding with beauty.

The beautiful sun rose...and the thought inside my head..."this world has more, than I can see.."
