Breakup
Eric Obame
The moon moves away from the Earth a little every year
In a few billion spins it will be a speck
Of the nightlight we hold dear
And the planets move away from the sun
And the galaxies from themselves
Once everything was one
Then hell blew up and well
Everything has been hectic ever since
The universe keeps expanding
No one wants to get back together
They like their freedom
And so do I
I realize now that like all space matter
I am better off on my own
Or at least without you
So cheer up
The star clusters keep spinning away from each other
And so must we
It is universal law
So goodbye
Have a nice life
I hope that someday you will waltz into some other galaxy and blend
But that family won’t be mine
