I hiked up the highest hill
To watch the sun go down
On your birthday
On a not quite full moon of April
I stared right in it with such thrill
And felt the blood neon colours
Of your departure
Rush through my veins and freezing me still
Stood in awe of this miracle I promised I will
Find an aperture
As I’m about to take on this solo adventure
Of a lifetime of dreams I’ve yet to fulfil.
