Voyager

Isolated, trapped inside the capsule
I fear that i may now be on my own
My crew have perished, and I am alone
Orbiting beyond the atmosphere
My communications are down and the power is cut
I gaze back to the Earth
Wondering, will I be remembered?
All that I’ve seen will fade
All that I am will be buried
Deep beneath the sands of time
All that I have worked toward
Is destined to die inside my mind
Will they remember the voyager
Or will they forget?
Moments left and nothing to show
I was brought into this world cold and alone
It only makes sense that I should also die cold and alone
But I will not die within these confines
Reaching forth, I release the hatch
I float away into nothingness
Gazing upon the blue planet
From a distance, I can see the beauty
As ice obscures my view
I’ve reached the end of the journey
The end of the voyage
Orbiting beyond the atmosphere
My life support has been depleted
And I soon will die all alone
I gaze back to the Earth
Wondering, will I be remembered?
Will I be remembered?
Will I be forgotten?
