Lunar Dreams

After college, my friends had plans.

Charles wanted to get married soon,

Lola wanted to paint,

But I, I decided to go to the moon.

Leave my mark in history,

And science too.

Have UN and the government-

Everyone at my shoe!

Be a part of space agencies like NASA,

And feel the lack of gravity.

Float in space,

Free from the world’s depravity.

I want to be lost,

In the universe’s nest.

See the beauty of existence,

At its very best.

Be safe from the ticking of the clock,

And the noise of a busy street,

Instead, just be alone with myself,

And hear my own heart beat.

After college, my friends had plans.

Charles got married soon,

Lola became a painter,

But I, I went to the moon.
