    A Space Boy Dream

    In a dream, the narrator had to travel to Mars but was terrified of the isolation of being the first to land alone on the dark, unknown surface. The plan was for the narrator, their father, and sister to each travel separately with a day in between. To cope with the fear, the narrator decided in the dream that upon landing, they would wait in the ship until their father arrived so they could explore Mars together. Upon waking still in darkness, the narrator initially thought they had landed on Mars and lay still waiting for their father.

    I dreamt I had to go to Mars

    I'm always kidding on about going to Mars for the day


    But faced with the reality of it, in a dream, I was terrified
    And it wasn't going to be like a moon trip
    There was three of us going, but we couldn't all go on the same ship
    We had to go one at a time, with a day between us
    I had to go first
    And it was the thought of passing through all that black space
    All the darkness with nothing in it
    And then being the first one to land there, all alone
    I knew it was supposed to be all dark around
    With just a red surface
    But what if I got there and it was light
    All civilised and populated and stuff?
    So I made a plan
    The other astronauts were going to be my dad and my sister
    And my dad would come first after me
    So I decided when I landed I would
    Just stay in my seat until he got there
    And then we could get out together
    And have a look around and see what sort of things were there
    And when I woke up and I was lying in the darkness
    I thought I had landed
    And I just lay still for a while
    Waiting for my dad to get there too
