I Am An Alien

I Am An Alien

I am an alien to this world

Born of atoms created billions of years ago

Atoms which drifted through time

Across millions of light years of space

Not connecting until they came upon a blue green planet

Random events brought them together

Giving them the breath of life

The freedom to exist together yet on their own

Combining into chains and molecules

Until two one celled inhabitants of human bodies combined

That random event mixed just perfectly

And that spark of life once  again ignited

I was born not long after

A member of the human species

Still an alien whose life began in the darkness of space

In the millionth of a second when nothing became everything

And I was created.
