Poems

Mother did you hear me cry?
You didn't even explain to me why
You had brought me to this place of rock and stone

My time has come now; I'm dying to leave this place
This planet of darkness and sorrow

You had set me out all on my own
You gave me the insight to see through your gaze
But you didn't know that I knew your ways

My time has come now; I'm dying to leave this place
This planet of rock and stone

I need to go to a planet of my own
A place in which to graze
I'm going to my house.

My time has come now: I'm dying to leave this place
This planet of false prophets.

Father I forgive you,
You couldn't have possibly known
You gave up your vows and now see your child grown.

My time has come now; I'm dying to leave this place
This planet of false pretense.

You couldn't see me all alone
Nor in darkness shadows fall
Where were you all?

I am at home now; from here I can reach up to the stars
I'm at home at my house on Mars.

Never will I smell the oceans breeze
Nor climb Earths massive trees
For I am alone all on my own

In my house.....
