[a single breath]

it all will begin –

[avoiding death]

i’m empty within

[terror grips]

i’m nearing the break -

[my world flips]

it’s all i can take

[now all is lost]

my soul is poured out -

[the line’s been crossed]

i’ve no time for doubt

[one last smile]

my tears run to rust -

[one more mile]

returning to dust –

[an ancient sigh]

i’ve broken my bars -

[a different sky]

i sing with the stars…
