A final push
I hear it call my name
I can feel it against my skin
If only I could see it
This thing that we call wind
It pushes my sails
It sets me free
Into the vast horizon
The crown of the sea
Fabric being pulled
Another flag to rise
Another offering
To the one who owns the skies
It blows the tear from my cheek
Like a friend I've always known
It's not the first kindness
That this natural force has shown
At last I'm here
I contribute my last breath
It's my final gift
For this life it's given me
And a thank you for the next
