My life is ending
My world, changing
Souls to come across
And souls to leave behind
And in my nightmares of the glorified chaos,
I see yours drift away.
With so much ending,
And so much changing,
I see the world open its
Arms to me.
And though it is vast
And cold
And salty
And windy
And moist enough to soak into my bones,
At least I have my kayak,
With countless directions to go
(except back, mind you)
And you in the other seat.
Are you in the seat ahead
Or the seat behind?
