She spread her wings that day
Seven years ago I must say
She didn’t say a word
She watched as she grew her wings
As she flew away
She couldn’t but think
That this is day
This is the day
That I have to go
I don’t want to leave any of you
But the pain is gone
This weak
Body of mine
I’ll leave it here
And disperse my spirit through your minds
On that September day
The nineteen we remember
That she spread her wings
And flew
One day I’ll meet up with again
I’ll have a pair of wings on my back near my shoulder blades
I’ll be able to see you again
And one of my wondrous friends
Trust me
I didn’t want you to go
I miss you very much so
I wish I could know
Why you left me then
But it’s been seven years
So I’ll just go with the flow…
I want her to meet you
I want to show you to them
The important people
Who have changed my life since
Even if we’re not close
Anymore
I’d like them to know
That they helped me through and though
For the time that you gave them
They entered my life
They gave a reason
As I searched for myself
Not knowing that it’d be years till I found a clue
They helped me
Every step of the way
Without you
I had them
But you were still in my heart
The thought of knowing that you were gone
Spread tears us all
This family
That was broken anyway
You were the glue
That held us together
And without you
Chaos came to us whether
We liked it or not
We don’t even have them anyway.
It seems like they ran away
Ones across the seas
