Bound With Possibilities

I look up at a night sky bound with possibilities,
Maybe life, maybe plants.
Perhaps a sea, filled with grass and flowers,
Or a mountain range, made entirely from water.
Could it be a planet just like our own,
Or something totally different, beyond what we could imagine?
It could be it filled with technology, or superheroes,
Or bland, and special, because it isn’t.
When you look up from it, what do you see?
Is it twinkling lights, much like our own?
Could you see each planet clearly, 
Or nothing at all?
What is there,
Laying upon the twinkling stars?
All of these possibilities, 
Or none?
What is there, in this night sky bound with possibilities?
