What its like, Dying on Mars
One day, I woke up on Mars
I must have slept to long,
Gazing up at the stars.
I knew i didn't belong.
Everything was strange to me.
All my senses and dreams were gone.
Needed to scream but I couldn't speak.
Mouth was dried and thoughts were wrong.
I was terribly confused.
None of it seemed right.
So i tightened the noose.
Hoping it was a dream in the night.
finally I tried to take a breath,
And suddenly realized I inhaled all that was death.
