Axdromeda
I crashed on Earth some time ago
used to be high up in the sky back then
the stars are home to little green men
that’s where I fit in
it all started while investigating
finding a newly discovered species
hoped to share their world
for my people's ongoing living
this led to my ship being shot down
trapped in rubble while I was left bleeding
watched as military surrounded my body
yet, that was so long ago
looking up at glimmers, thinking
how long till the sun starts sinking
crashing down on my poor
Axdromeda
(Axdromeda)
being held captive in a world I can’t stand
need to be rescued from this dusty land
phone home to tell my true love
let’s leave this life together
(together)
another dead head
looking at my reflection
forced to take on an image of a suit and tie
help invent or become an experiment
enslaved for my intelligence
with no way of finding family or friends
missing my lover
I promised I would find salvation for
she still sits on our dying world
or at least I hope so
looking up at glimmers, thinking
how long till the sun starts sinking
crashing down on my poor
Axdromeda
(Axdromeda)
being held captive in a world I can’t stand
need to be rescued from this dusty land
phone home to tell my true love
let’s leave this life together
(together)
escaping the clutches of their hands
I send out my transmission
up, up, at the speed of light
S.O.S, I’m ready
I’m ready to come home
my mission's a failure
the people of this planet are hostile
if our people settle here we'll be captives
there is no hope

Author's Note
An older poem I wanted to update. When I was writing it I was thinking if aliens came to this world how would we treat them?

I'm quite fascinated by aliens, UFOs n stuff so I really enjoyed this piece... This is a touching write exposing how cruel n selfish we humans are as a specie...
I used to watch Ancient Aliens on Fox History channel... And I loved it.

Incredible storytelling here, DevilsChild... Except it's no work of fiction. The reality we live in. I would say more, but InDreamz took the words from my mouth. "A few steps back, you say?", sometimes it feels like a giant leap...

Well the human cruelty is real unfortunately. And yeah, maybe a giant leap.
Thank you very much for the read 😁
