Jump freely,

Travel yonder.

Be our hope

Of better than we.

See the things we weren't blessed to see

Enjoy your endless moments

More than we did,

Never stop believing,

Like we did.

We celebrate you—

The epitome of life

Untarnished,

Untainted,

Still flawless.

Perhaps you will end

No better than we

This is probable,

Probably.

But we say this prayer now

In the hope you won't be

You'll always be welcome

Back here in our homes

We see you as perfect,

No matter how far you roam.

You are the next,

The next everything.

Tomorrow you'll face that,

Tonight, rest.
