Rocky Landing Sitting across from you, my dearest friend on earth, we talk about the years we’ve shared and what we’ve seen. Your laughter makes me smile as sunshine lights your face. It always feels like we’ve gone back to being teens. Chorus: Our pond has dried up; exposed rocks now line the shore. Time slipped by unnoticed, and we still yearn for more. Our lives felt mighty when the water touched the grass. Landing boats was simple when we had strength and mass. The sun is setting low, and dark’ning skies give birth to newborn shadows that protect our weary eyes. But oars can’t hold back time, and we’re at steady pace to reach the rocky landing of our last goodbye. Chorus: Our pond has dried up; exposed rocks now line the shore.
