it was a space mission gone wrong,
his rocket landing on the red shores
of a forgotten planet.
but nobody could hear his SOS,
his message to ground control,
because nobody was listening,
nobody knew he was lost;
the world below had forgotten him,
erased him from their heads
and their hearts,
mapping him as just
another
lonely star.
