Alpha Centauri

 packed up the last of our goods

steady the rockets into space

out of orbit from the stars

into the pocket of nothingness

into stasis we sleep as the journey begins


--------------------------------------

we travel, 

far away

away from earth. 

we make our stay 

on alpha centauri

in the great beyond

into the void we cross

scabbard in our hands

---------------------------------------


there we glide into the void of chaos

a twinkle in the eye is our new home

as we sleep for fourteen hundred days

we move at the speed of light

passing through the asteroid field


--------------------------------------

we travel, 

far away

away from earth. 

we make our stay 

on alpha centauri

in the great beyond

into the void we cross

scabbard in our hands

---------------------------------------


we come to within a light year of alpha centauri

we awake from the slumber of four years

our bodies coming out of stasis

the three stars illuminating our faces from

the window's glow


--------------------------------------

we travel, 

far away

away from earth. 

we make our stay 

on alpha centauri

in the great beyond

into the void we cross

scabbard in our hands
