There's A Beauty In Permanence(Or All Rise)

One hand 'round the other's wrist
All air exiting my chest
All senses functioning: Heart beats, maintain breathing
As you walk steadily, I have never felt so weak, or so 
strong, as I do now
Lids close for the last time on a world familiar to their 
eyes
And, when opened, they will be made new, staring for the 
first time at you
Earth pauses, and all time stops as the music cues and the 
ground drops out from me
In this moment as you're drawing near, my destiny is 
finally clear and it's you
Walk steadily
I have never felt so weak, or so strong, as I do now
She makes herself ready
