Not Rocket Science
our day
Thursday
was always
our day until
as of late i made
the statement
close to landing
on the moon but mis
taken and both misquoted
"That's one small step for a man..."
leaps and
bounds later
i find i can't find
her yet know she's
there so back i go to
sleep
where
i will find
her seemingly
next to me yet i
leapt
didn't
she know
it was "a man"
on the moon and
breaking
up Houston
the real quote
"we've had a problem
here" but she's nowhere
near
nearly
falling back
into sleep but
needing to speak
or at
least write
it was today but
now not even tonight
but the early hours of Thursday
