White ghostly figure
Standing at my door
“Hi Pa ”
I wish I could call
A voice that stuck in my throat.
“ Why are you wearing white? ”
“ Where are you now? ”
I wish I could ask
Looking right into each other
You did not mention anything
It was an awkward silence
I get it
you don’t belong here
You came to see me
To tell me you have long gone
It is time for me to acknowledge
A time for us to bid goodbye
Was it a dream
Was it a reality
You know, I couldn’t tell
Corrinne May’s fly away was my comfort
It’s the one thing that seems to understand me perfectly
She sings
“You can fly so high
Keep your gaze upon the sky
I’ll be praying every step along the way
Even though it breaks my heart to know we’ll be so far apart
I love you too much to make you stay
Baby fly away”
I hope you’ll fly high
Above the sky
I hope to see you someday
Where our paths meet again
