View From An Asteroid

Which way?  You ask, is far from home
when you live among the stars
Which way?  I know, been here before
but last time it was Mars

When I came here  (awhile ago)
the Earth was still asleep
Cooling down, the crust still glowed
mountains with caverns deep

Thousands more, just like this one
beyond your wildest dreams
In Galaxies both near and far
with molten bubbling streams

There is no end, perpetual life
as fast as one World dies
A dozen more, new glowing Orbs
are seen throughout the skies

I leave again, I might come back
that's if my path is clear
Could be in twenty thousand years
I'll see if you're still here.....
