My Moon
When I was 5,
I wanted to be
An astronaut.
You told me you'd be
My moon,
And I replied saying that
I would always find my way to you.
When I was 10,
I wanted to be
A movie star.
You could play the princess
And I could be the prince,
And we could live in our
Happy, little castle.
When I was 15,
I wanted to be
A comedian.
Maybe you could put down
The knife
And laugh at me again.
When I was 20,
I wanted to be
A doctor.
I wished I could learn all the facts
So you could be healthy
At last.
When I was 25,
I wanted to be
Dead.
So I could lie in
the earth with you,
And dream a
Happy end.
When I became 30,
I finally became
An astronaut.
I flew off into the sky
To kiss my moon,
Up high.
