Epitaph for Earth

by Pogykt

I am breaking apart, atom by atom. I am forgetting the clouds, and how high they could be. The world is spinning backwards at a thousand miles per hour, I'm getting car sick in a rocket headed for another galaxy. We are crying out new oceans, for the ones our children will never know. Aliens find words carved into the stars: "We miss home."

If we moved to another planet, would our children still miss the green earth?
