A windy day
The clouds in slow formation
Not far away

A final destination
One mother's son
His father's distant gaze, regretting

Where they went wrong
He always found it too upsetting


Me and my friend
We lived our lives completely
From start to end

You and your friend, so sweetly
With strength and pride
In spite of everything, and swimming

Against the tide
To obstinately hope of winning


And at the end
Your funny uncle staring
At all your friends

With military bearing
And stopped to stand
To smile and speak of you directly

Goodbye, shake hands
Like you did everything correctly


To wipe away the tears
No more pain, no fear
No sorrow or dying

No waiting or crying
These former things have passed away
Another life begins today
