[of dreams and galaxies]

[To Neil Perry]

Carpe diem
I wonder what you thought the first time
you heard Keats say that
Maybe you thought
what would it feel like to do it
To Carpe diem, I mean
And you did do Carpe diem
alot of the times
When you took that role
Even after knowing all the odds
All you wanted was to act
To follow your dreams
the dreams that made you so beautiful
Neil Perry, I'm writing to you
I'm writing to you
In hopes that you are still out somewhere
And that you know
how proud your captain was
to see you on the stage
you did so well
everyone was smiling at you
Todd was so proud to see you doing what you loved doing, knox was with Chris
he was happy to be with her, to see you
And Charlie well Charlie was as usual
He was, what had he said /Nuwanda/,
And I wonder what did you think of
when you held the trigger upclose to you
'I was good. I was very good" you'd said
You were, you were great
but I hope you knew this
while in your last breathes,
I hope you knew that you did good
that you did seize the day
You did it
You did Carpe diem
Even if it killed you.
