I know not where I'm going.
I remember where I've been.
There will be no tomorrows,
in the land of in between.

A land of in between of
the yesterday's, mis-spent,
won't allow me to quit now,
as I will never relent.

In the darkest corner, of this aging brain,
where words lay unused, you will find,
a lovely creature, who controls my thoughts.
Hopefully, the words are always kind.

Emotions I have now, are influenced
by an internal disappointment, not a rage.
No matter how I look at this,
if it's not any better, than turn the page.

NASA Astronomy Picture of the Day:

The December 28 night launch of a Falcon Heavy rocket from Kennedy Space Center in Florida marked the fifth launch for the rocket's reusable side boosters. About 2 minutes 20 seconds into the flight, the two side boosters separated from the rocket's core stage. Starting just after booster separation, this three minute long exposure captures the pair's remarkable boostback burns, maneuvers executed prior to their return to landing zones on planet Earth. While no attempt was made to recover the Falcon Heavy's core stage, both side boosters landed successfully and can be flown again. The four previous flights for these side boosters included last October's launch of NASA's asteroid-bound Psyche mission. Their next planned flight is on the Europa Clipper mission scheduled for launch in October 2024.

I'm lost.
My mind is gone.
You aren't here,
I am alone.

Away from you,
I'll take a walk.
Oh, how I miss you,
I need to talk.

I know not where I'll be tomorrow,
all my memories left, with a roar.
Restart a life I can't remember,
leave my past behind the door.

My wonderful life is over,
I won't be back anymore.
Now I must move forward,
keeping our dreams, no more.

Outward the Wind,
Inward the sea.
Not sure where I'm going,
how about thee?

Any direction,
into the Sun.
Perhaps I'll discover,
who might be the one.

A fire within,
burns deep, in my soul,
as memories of old,
begin to take their toll.

Please let me return to
a more forgiving life,
for I ache and cry, as I
am missing my wife.

NASA Astronomy Picture of the Day:

Jupiter, our Solar System's ruling gas giant, is also the fastest spinning planet, rotating once in less than 10 hours. The gas giant doesn't rotate like a solid body though. A day on Jupiter is about 9 hours and 56 minutes long at the poles, decreasing to 9 hours and 50 minutes near the equator. The giant planet's fast rotation creates strong jet streams, separating its clouds into planet girdling bands of dark belts and bright zones. You can easily follow Jupiter's rapid rotation in this sharp sequence of images from the night of January 15, all taken with a camera and small telescope outside of Paris, France. Located just south of the equator, the giant planet's giant storm system, also known as the Great Red Spot, can be seen moving left to right with the planet's rotation. From lower left to upper right, the sequence spans about 2 hours and 30 minutes.

I wish I knew,
how the words in my mind,
assembled together, to spew
out words, which are kind.

I don't feel thankful,
and don't feel blessed.
I feel my emotions have attacked.
I've been spiritually undressed.
