"blastoff" poems - Hello Poetry

Delayed response to ground control, oh how I was crying. In retrospect, I was just shallow; like an astronaut only watching himself as the rest of the world kept steadily spinning. Impersonal up here, never caring about winning or losing. The star charts that mentors showed lost to what my mind followed, A winding path through this sacred space which I unhallowed. I didn't flinch at blastoff; it wasn't bravery, it was me being a coward. Sweating in a far away bed, steel round walls with no decoration, Straining my mind fighting the moments of suffocation. Spots in my vision, distortion and discoloration. Seeing stars I glimpsed my comet on exhibition. I would have to come back around. It was just a matter of my rotation. Retrospect from ages back and to beyond where we will have gone. Black holes made that can never be filled, endless they came, endless they will come. To touch down in glory, or stay on the run. Life is just a rocket that departs from the sun. The rest isn't lost, it just hasn't been done. So as we eventually drift into deep space and age becomes our dawn, remember to look out the window and wave to the passerby's. They will cheer you on.

Rockets, Comets, And The Stars Between Them All

Delayed response to ground control, oh how I was crying. In retrospect, I was just shallow; like an astronaut only watching himself as the rest of the world kept steadily spinning. Impersonal up here, never caring about winning or losing. The star charts that mentors showed lost to what my mind followed, A winding path through this sacred space which I unhallowed. I didn't flinch at blastoff; it wasn't bravery, it was me being a coward. Sweating in a far away bed, steel round walls with no decoration, Straining my mind fighting the moments of suffocation. Spots in my vision, distortion and discoloration. Seeing stars I glimpsed my comet on exhibition. I would have to come back around. It was just a matter of my rotation. Retrospect from ages back and to beyond where we will have gone. Black holes made that can never be filled, endless they came, endless they will come. To touch down in glory, or stay on the run. Life is just a rocket that departs from the sun. The rest isn't lost, it just hasn't been done. So as we eventually drift into deep space and age becomes our dawn, remember to look out the window and wave to the passerby's. They will cheer you on.

So I wonder who killed JFK Was it a man named hunger play Movie predator and the pray Simple action and meditate Total hopeful and kinda delayed And every murderer repaided Believe Carma Cola faded The first place designated Time is at hand the last days World War 3 in Trinity ways Isreal in the east State stays Stay and drop bombs and Jay's Jordan the Illuminati create Jordan and Nile river cream mate..11.11 Ethiopian Princess great Great Great grandpa SEeD DNA Additional rest to retaliate While u lie and legislate Regulate revolver reinteirigate Now game over checkmate From Pluto to Mercury And the planets inbetween Through in some moons And we'll make the trip clean Going control to starship one Your journey has just begun 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 Blastoff your off to the stars Is it a journey to find life Or is it a journey to find a place to hide With the heat of the sun upon my feet I try to keep my starship neat Now to the outer skirts of the milkyway I think I see life or could it be a knife This journey is killing me what a fight Is the end or did I find life

Are we not together you and I? Should we share our affection in private? Safe from the piercing daggers Hidden from the wandering eyes Never had I felt more alone That moment when you vanished And all that was left Was a lingering scent of longing Two weeks couldn't come faster Counting down the days to bliss The reverse blastoff that slows To a snales pace, a dead crawl All I ever wanted was you Only you, substitutes be ****** No more mindless loves, afterall Are we not together, you and I?

i used to have this skill of writing beautiful words it developed through my misery it resounded in my nerves i had rhymes in my head and i put them together i made people feel things with an assortment of letters but now my mind is too full, too scattered, too broken and all those words have slipped; my thoughts have come unwoven absolutely unraveled, solidly unfrozen, fantastically shattered, an organized explosion. those beautiful words lost in the blast i used to wish my mind would die and it happened at last.

I’m floating now I’m drifting off No need somehow To have blastoff There is some pain But nothing bad I still feel sane But just a tad I close my eyes And ease my breath No more disguise A silent death I shouldn’t go They’d all be stressed I wake to woe Prolong my rest
