We are all just prisoners here
On this tiny blue planet
In a beautiful sea
Of stars
Nebulas
Maybe other life,
If that is so hard to believe?
What if we just took these
Mechanical wings and
Flew up to our
Ancestor's heavens?
Would we ever be welcome back
To our Earth home?

I wrote this poem a while ago, but I enjoy it a lot, and it's got a lot of my soul in it.
