Rocket Ship

Rocket Ship

A Story by Pharos
"

reaching the unreachable heights...

"

Back when I was a kid, All I can say is...
I had one friend who supported me
and stayed by my side for a long time.

Till one day she never came back 
and the place where we used to be
seems to be empty now...

But life went on, and everything 
seemed to change to the worst.
I begun to draw out of boredom 
and what I always drew was a 
spaceship flying throughout the
starry galaxy.

Then many got curious why I kept
on drawing the same thing over
and over again.
I was bullied for it, and some were
concerned about me.
Till one day the teacher asked me
to go in front and asked me why
I loved drawing rocket ships.

Do you want to be an astronaut? 
is it your dream to go to Space?

" No teacher, I love rocket ships 
because they can fly up to the sky! 
and she told me if i don't see her 
again, we could meet again up above
the sky! "

It was silly a idea back then i know
but it was not about space travel.
maybe that little me from back then
was giving a hint, the answer 
and it was...

" I want to go to Heaven too and meet her again. "

Author's Note

Pharos
there is no literal rocket ship but just a childish thought I had long ago...
