A short free verse poem
I reached for the moon, I spoke
too soon. How much did it cost?
Did it cost you the things and
people you hold most dear to you.

Or did it cost you your life? Which
has no meaning to you. I wish I could
sell my life like you but my life still
has meaning. Everday I wish it did not

cause I can't take anymore of this, I wanna
come apart. I was dropped from moonbeans
and sailed on shooting stars. Maybe you'll
be president but know right from wrong and

teach us all. Save us from this world of pain,
chaos and disorder. Or in a flood you'll
build an Ark and sail us to the moon.
