Mar 2014
An exhausted life that began
Has birthed space, bereft of man.
We journey on, we journey far
But never as any could plan.

Let's explore further; raise the bar
And please, oh please, wish on that star.
If you ever reach up to space,
May it's memory never mar.

I long to travel to that place
To let it shine upon my face
Before I lie beneath that stone
And at long last give up this race.

For when I go to the unknown,
I can rest on that milestone.
A world so new, I lie alone,
Finally here now, on my own.
