My Spaceman

You are a wonder to me
My Spaceman
May Seventeen
We arrived on a planet
Strangers
Unnoticed and unseen

 

Before we clock in
The start of the same day
I wait... I watch for your wheels
White and shiny you emerge from your ship
With not even a glance across to me

 

I notice your stance
Legs wide arms crossed
Deep drown eyes blanketed under a frown
We appear to be the same species
My Spaceman
But you are a wonder to me 

 

Yet the stars they align
More than a year down the line
Surrounded by creatures and darkness
They watch us through the night
We talk and talk
And talk some more
Our connection burns brighter than the silver moon that flies just outside the window

 

My Spaceman
We met on a planet
Inhabited and ruled
I was lost and you saved me
The same month
The same year
I was never meant to crash land there

 

Yet My Spaceman you saw me
You wondered and saved me
Your heart my impossible tether
On this planet I fought and fought to escape
You became the reason for my being there

 

The force of the glaxay is between us
Yet the tether remains strong
My Spaceman
Where did you come from?
I\'ve set up camp on this planet
Because I wonder
And wonder
Are we not each other\'s home?
