Once when the breaking moved me
To take on the guise of planets
Where comets display peacock tails
Amidst the drop of languid stars

And in the space where planets dream
I dreamt the dreams of planets
Where all is splendid and all is painted
And all the jewels gleam

But so vast the distance
And deep the chasm
So lonely the void
And black the gulf of space

So my heart -
Half the meeting
Confined within its grip of muscle
Despairs the curse of form

This is the dream of planets
The desolate echo of whales
Oh how I miss you
How I miss you...
