Airplanes

Will you still be there when I land

Will you still offer brittle hands

Will oceans dry leave only sand

Will you still be there when I land

I thought I slept to ease the loss

But when I dream I think of us

The dreams weigh in begin to crush

But waking up's still not enough

You are my song the lullaby

The parting gift of last goodbyes

But then I dream and die inside

And wake to find pain still coincides

I see your face with dreary eyes

Your smile imprints the darkest nights

Will you be waiting when I land

Can I hold your brittle hands

I take flight to somewhere darker

To find the stars in open voids

When I touch ground - return to earth

I crash like an asteroid

My consciousness is aether

Floating lost outside my skin

Will you be waiting when I land

Can I hear your voice again

I take this flight in hopes to find

You waiting at the end

Maybe one day you will be waiting

And it won’t be just pretend
