My Mission to the Moon

Dedicated to John True
for getting me there...

Do you remember when you told me
About my mission to the moon?
That relationships
Were like rocket ships
That seemed to quit too soon?

You said that each has made me strong
That each has had its reason
Like a falling star
Your sky it scars
Whether by circumstance or treason

And as soon as one fell to the sun
Another would fly from a wish
With love and care
They wouldtake me there
My mission to accomplish

But John, I said quite worriedly.
What about your purpose met?
You've tasted my tears
And hushed my fears
What better friend could I get?

If I make it to the moon,
Will you be there by my side?
You're special, you know
And to have you go...
I'd rather with a comet collide

You told me to have faith in us
And witnessed by the Milky Way
I closed my eyes
And swallowed my pride
As you took my pain away

As my feet now rest upon strange soil
I know what I have found
My spirit so high
I could almost cry
Joy brings my knees to the ground

But as my open eyes search out my hero
His location now unknown
I am torn
Withone thousandthorns
As I realize... I'm alone?

Thank you for reading! I wrote this around 2:00 in the morning. I had an idea and went with it, so I hope you like it! I'm not sure what to think of it as far as how good of a job I did, but it does mean a lot to me for personal reasons. I don't care much for all the rhyming, but it's special anyway! Please review! I love them reviews!
