The memory of your touch on the earth will remain As you glide through the Milkyway Watching the earth circle the sun You are part of every sunrise You are part of every sunset You're up there Between the planets Dancing on the moon Inhaling stardust Exhaling love Lounging on an asteroid, Tapping the ash off the tip of your cigarette on the galaxy's edge Memories in constellations That you twirl between your fingers Our mission was together But you decided to leave early The suspension of your ship caught me off guard I was too close to the flames It burned me deeply But I know the stars were meant for you You're more infinite than you have ever been Breathing easy; my fellow space cadet I know you're okay

Suspension
The memory of your touch on the earth will remain As you glide through the Milkyway Watching the earth circle the sun You are part of every sunrise You are part of every sunset You're up there Between the planets Dancing on the moon Inhaling stardust Exhaling love Lounging on an asteroid, Tapping the ash off the tip of your cigarette on the galaxy's edge Memories in constellations That you twirl between your fingers Our mission was together But you decided to leave early The suspension of your ship caught me off guard I was too close to the flames It burned me deeply But I know the stars were meant for you You're more infinite than you have ever been Breathing easy; my fellow space cadet I know you're okay
My wounds will heal but the scars will remain. You always loved my space poem, I thought I'd write one for you. We were going to go to NASA in Houston together. I'm going to have to make that trip for both of us now. I love you Desma, please don't be gone.
