Drifting through open space,
Lost somewhere in the sky.
I see the light,
As I begin to slip off into night.
Forgotten are my worries,
They were left far behind.
I am chilling,
As all movement dies.
Space grows,
My mind begins to go.
Wasted time gone.
I realize how I miss you,
As I begin to cry.
I left it all below,
Never thought I’d look back.
Foresight was not in the plan,
Should have looked ahead.
Drifting forever.
Hopelessly lost in the heavens,
I take my last breath,
Knowing that I will never,
I will never forget you.
Your smile did always brighten my day…
This one was written way back, probably at the end of high school into that summer. I always really liked this poem. A friend of mine even turned it into a song back then.
