- Tracing the cosmos In wide open spaces Only to face The dreams that I wander A lonely existence Among constellations Orbiting my desires Now eclipsed by you Gazing down The earth below seems faded As this distance counts Light years like glazed donuts Tempting from a window, as a kid Licking the glass, Never tasting the prize Lunar phases Become poetic phrases Cosmic dust descending Caught in gravity’s pull Rocketing towards a target Programmed for a safe Reentry into your heart The craft juts and jolts, screeching Amidst the desolate silence of space “Houston, we have a problem. She needs to know how I feel, how much I love her...” Static echoed frequency hums Transmission ended All hope burned up Crash landed

Crash Landed
- Tracing the cosmos In wide open spaces Only to face The dreams that I wander A lonely existence Among constellations Orbiting my desires Now eclipsed by you Gazing down The earth below seems faded As this distance counts Light years like glazed donuts Tempting from a window, as a kid Licking the glass, Never tasting the prize Lunar phases Become poetic phrases Cosmic dust descending Caught in gravity’s pull Rocketing towards a target Programmed for a safe Reentry into your heart The craft juts and jolts, screeching Amidst the desolate silence of space “Houston, we have a problem. She needs to know how I feel, how much I love her...” Static echoed frequency hums Transmission ended All hope burned up Crash landed
