Watcher On The Hills Tale by Saphileaum, edited by @david-dephy

…and the watcher was sitting at the edge of a hill. Only the sky was above him and the night was so near in that second.

No one knows how long he was sitting silently — a century. He was looking up to the sky. Just watching it, nothing more really. Not a thought, any thought.

His mind was calm and clean after all that noise he left behind. Never has anyone looked at the sky and never has the sky looked at anyone so lovingly before. He knew his glance was as an imprint on water, two lovers as one flesh and soul, and suddenly, the watcher’s temple started to shine. 

He felt lighting up all around him. A fleeting glimpse of the infinite sky was dancing in his mind, he heard music from far beyond, pulsing on its very end. The watcher stood up in the sky and followed the music of lighting. He was dancing too.

The watcher’s temple was drifting in the air, he became transparent and soft as a feather. Every feeling and sense in him and all around him was beating as the heartbeats. The sky was roaring and transcending.

The watcher had lost balance, as if he lost his own breath, and started to lift. The sky was pulling him over as a magnetic field, welcoming him home in the heart of its own self. 

He kissed the air, his transparent kiss embraced constellations and slowly melted into the divine silence and the nectar of sweet transformation was poured over him entirely. 

His temple, pulsating by the essence of heartbeat, disappeared into the transparent sphere of purest blazing flame. He had become as subtle as air — nourished by the distant lights and then he became a star surrounded by silence, gently sliding all over the night sky, and then he became the whole cosmos and the universe and…

"The more sensibility the soul of a contemplative person possesses, the more it gives into the exact excited by this concord: a pleasing and profound reverie takes possession of their senses, being lost in the delicious intoxication and immensity of this charming system, with which they feel themself so intimately connected. Detached objects make no more impression on them, they only see and feel the whole, and some particular circumstance must contract and circumscribe their ideas, before they are enabled to enter on a partial observation of that universe, which their imagination is on the stretch to compass." - Jean-Jacques Rousseau, Reveries of a Solitary Walker (1782)
