Trying to escape
The impossible,
Dark and quiet
I stay in fear
emptyness as my company
trying to search for life
Jumping from planet
To planet
In hopes of finding earth,
And reaching for the stars
Sparkling and scattered all around,
just floating in the air
Trying to hold on to reality
Because heaven is so overrated
I never did anything wrong,
It wans't my time
Wanting to just wake up
from this nightmare of barrenness
Yet why is this so damn hard
I don't belong here
I never did and never will
In this universe of nothing
Just let me go
Let me be free
And escape back to reality

I love the repitition! The repitition of, "I don't belong here..." makes the feeling even stronger in this poem! I really like it. I was able to feel as if I was the one who was desperate to leave the afterlife. Also, nice imagery!! And great ending =D lol. Sorry this comment seems kind of repetitive too. How coincidental. Anyways, Thank you so much for entering my contest and best of luck in having done so!!
