Farewell Flight

There's A Beauty In Permanence(Or All Rise)

Farewell Flight


One hand 'round the other's wrist 
All air exiting my chest 
All senses functioning: Heart beats, maintain breathing 
As you walk steadily, I have never felt so weak, or so strong, as I do now 
Lids close for the last time on a world familiar to their eyes 
And, when opened, they will be made new, staring for the first time at you 
Earth pauses, and all time stops as the music cues and the ground drops out from me 
In this moment as you're drawing near, my destiny is finally clear and it's you 
Walk steadily 
I have never felt so weak, or so strong, as I do now 
She makes herself ready
