Rocketship

Written while daydreaming at work. Dedicated to my little sister.

I'm a spacebound rocketship
with no destination.
Shooting through the ether,
with the stars as navigation.

I don't know where I'm going,
but I know where I've been.
Forgetting about the past,
but learning from what I've seen.

And I've learnt the hard way,
had my share of rough landings.
Been stranded on distant moons,
but my frame is still standing.

And I'll keep going,
at least until I reach my goal.
Still not sure what it is,
But when I land I'm sure I'll know.

So to all my fellow rocketships,
with your own scratches and dents,
keep flying, take your own path,
and share this story at it's end...
