Astronaut

Carla Delgado 

I feel as if I’m floating in space
The darkness surrounds me completely
I had no destination in mind
Wandering aimlessly among the rocks

The darkness surrounds me completely
When I saw a star shining brightly
Wandering aimlessly among the rocks
But the light was almost dimmed by the dust

When I saw a star shining brightly
I was overcome with fear
But the light was almost dimmed by the dust
And so I made the choice to meet the star

I was overcome with fear
I had no destination in mind
And so I made the choice to meet the star
I feel as if I’m floating in space
