ABORT ABORT

but Donaldson was already drifting

further and further away from us

the thickness of his suit decreasing

as his courageous kindness

floated on within his demise

and all I could do was stare panic stricken

through the small window’s cruelness

as the white speck of my friend

became more and more surrounded

by the blackness of space

far removed from everything that existed

and I wondered if Donaldson would

explore the universe forever

A hard subject brilliantly shared. I really like how it could be literal or metaphorical.
