Dropping like a fly
In a prop plane, into the valley
Where you live and work
And struggle without me
Skipping like a stone
Between the waves of grain
I reel in the forgiveness
Numb from the pain
Bending the sun
Like a cracked windshield
In light of all I've sung
That can never be undone
_______________
The moments we can't have back are no worse
Than those I dreamed up and rehearsed
That never have come
That sigh was a softer than I could have imagined
To hear you lungs cast off what your hands did
Saying he never came
I know 400 miles isn't a thousand, to one of our doors
But don't make the miles we've crossed together more
Than those to come
