Connected (2021)

alone in deep space
between Earth and Mars
Sun always shining
among all the stars

we are in touch
connected we find
when closing our eyes
to sync mind to mind

you in a valley
on your red planet home,
me in my ship
wherever I roam...

space is not empty
when I know that you
can know what I feel
when I'm feeling you...

faster than light
between every breath
thoughts on the wing
are all that is left

when in the silence,
the hush deep within,
visualizing
places we've been
