The Willow Tree

how i ended up on planet earth

i don't fit in
because i am an alien
from another planet
that belongs to a galaxy
far away from the milky way

i accidentally landed on planet earth
while i was exploring
the outer space
because i thought
home was too boring
i needed something more

i was attracted to this planet
because of its vibrant colors
blue is my favorite color
so beautiful
i feel so calm just by looking at it.
but this one was different, bright.
i couldn't stop staring.
the color humans call "green" was attractive to me
for i have never seen it before
nothing looks like that back home

i was only going to look at this beautiful thing
but something strange happened
it was like there was an invisible power
that kept pulling me
towards this brilliantly-colored sphere
i tried to resist it
many times
but i failed
every single time.

eventually i realized
there was nothing i could do
but to give in
to this incredible power
and face my destiny.

i crashed into the ground
i tried to float but couldn't
it was like this force was real
it is a trap
once you're in
you can't get out

i am still trying to figure out a way
to escape this
concrete jungle

my spaceship is broken
and that supernatural force
has gone over my head.

i am scared i won't be able to make it
but all i can do is hope
and keep trying.
