To the Moon!



I boarded a rocket to the moon
A while back before which
Memories and experiences
Where sparse and galore
At the same time that is

Accelerated against gravity
And as we did lost
That big lower weight
Which to my surprise was
Filled with payload
To escape inertia and baggage

The second and third stage complete
And we were stranded in outer space
So to say but slowly but surely
One the path to the destination

It is this time that I felt
Is the most dangerous
For when things were
At a staggering pace
Associated with the escape
One had time not
To think a lot

It is in this time that
Memories and the past
Haunts you it seems
To the last for
Every few paces there
Are but thoughts

An interesting fact though
The pace as slow as it may seem
Is something that was earned
And the world around me
Moves just as fast

In fact back on earth the
Time differential is a killer
And far ahead has time moved
While I slowly progress
With a painful existence

I know not at the moment if
The gravity of the moon is close
 Or still far away
Is the path right or righteous?
But for now…
There is no escape
