He had become a God
standing atop the world
looking down, knowing
anything could be achieved
in that moment, realization struck
he leapt from the highest peak
the wind whispering her secret
finally free
the trees grew majestically, closing in
the birds whistled a sweet melody
the water danced, awaiting eternal embrace
he forgot all the pain
free falling
time froze and he smiled
his last smile, for the Earth
goodbye

looking down, knowing
anything could be achieved

he leapt from the highest peak

finally free
the trees grew majestically, closing in
the birds whistled a sweet melody
the water danced, awaiting eternal embrace
he forgot all the pain
free falling
time froze and he smiled
his last smile, for the Earth
goodbye
