I wish to call you as promised, I would
Yet I burden you more than I should.
Wings so ethereal, yet bounded in chains.
What could I do, rather than bring pain?

With this wingless vessel, I can only hope to live.
Though it seems...
I can not meet those standards I held so high.

Here I lie, in this deserted nest.
Wishing to see you before I rest.
With all my power, I spoke.

"Do not resent yourself because of what you've done..."

For I, was the one who could not fly.

"Fly high as you should...Let those wings free you from this caged world.."

From this prison you're in, for now you can rest easy as I wished to the sky; Where we sat under the illuminating stars.

"This shall be..."

"Our final goodbye."
