Departing
Written by Emma Thaker inspired by the works of Paul Sills
I walk through this place
My head in the clouds
My past is behind me
I've been walking for hours
Where am I?
What lies beyond?
I can't find the path
Where do I belong?
Where do I belong?
And as I burst forth
Through the veil of fog and tears
It flashes past my eyes
The remnants of years
Years passed
And years came
As I see it all here
Again and again...
But I still cannot see
The path in front of me...
A spark of warmth
And memories of summer sun
Wash away sad goodbyes
The place from where I have come
And I know
I know
The truth becomes clear
Pearlescent orbs of light
Filter past my perception
Past reality
I feel so light
I skim the gossamer ground
White light all around
And I see
Eternity.
I become whole
Joining with infinity
Enveloped in this love
Bathed in this light
No more confusion
Or reasons to fight
A ball of fire
Spreads outward ever onward
Engulfing my being
Glowing and sending out
Cinders of love
To the world below
And I know
Yes I know
It is my time to go.
Pull me forward
And as I depart
You will always have me
Right there in your heart
You can keep the best of me
Remember me too
For I will be there forever
Always part of you
I glide through this place
I am part of the clouds
Past present and futre
Days minutes and hours
Where am I?
What lies beyond?
Wait and you will find me
One day on your journey
I will sing you this song
Goodbye.
