He must feel alone.
Okay, yes, I know he’s just a drone.
But that doesn’t mean he doesn’t feel alone.
He must miss Earth, his home.

At night he must stare at the sky,
At the stars and the moon,
Wishing that he’ll come home soon.

Little does he know that his live feed,
Is no longer seen.
The messages he’s sending,
Are deemed a waste of spending.
Because down here on Earth,
We’ve reevaluated his worth.

But no one let him know,
Up there all alone.
That drone.
That must miss Earth, his home.
May not be scientifically correct. But those guys up there always deserve a thought.

It was time.
A spectacle was yet to take place
Exploring other worlds were always facinating to me
A footprint we left, every step it took was the sign that life exists.

We were like little trinkets, parts of stars that followed the rover from behind and took our fractions of amazingness of the universe.

It was the universe that broke you.
- This poem is about the opportunity rover
- The rover went to sleep on February 13, 2019

My head is growing thicker
My heart is growing sicker
My body is becoming frail
My voice is only a wail
My eyes no longer work
My attitude is that of a ****

There is no saving
Thoughts that are raving
Just turn and run
Here you'll find no fun
Place wide the danger cones
This is the explosion zone
When it's all over
Feed my pieces to Rover

In feelings I never ventured,
Till I walked over to you and said hello.
You told me feelings were useless,
For those who had never lost,
But I didn’t care.

I thought I had lost plenty,
And that plenty had made me strong.
But I had never felt as weak,
As when you smiled at me.

                                                            ­                               Red rover red rover,
                                                                ­                    Send my love back over.
                                                           ­                                        I spilled in you,
                                                                ­              And you ****** it through,
                                                                ­           And never sent it back to me.
