Stellar

He departs his life for the cosmos
But observes hellish black holes
The look inclined to swallow him
And he can hear the weeping souls

But he travels with the speed of light
And prays to attain one star
It seems a long shot, shining bright
And his last journey will be far

But there's an angel by his side
Who takes him by the arm
Guides him to the stellar route
And shields him from flaring harm.
