I am going to chase the light
\nand catch up with the past.
\nWatch my father make sinkers
\nout of lead for his fishing pole.
\nMy brother Jack ride off on his bike
\nto get doughnuts for me.
\nI am going to sit on the edge of infinity
\nand tell people, that\u2019s my father
\nin the distance.
\nThat\u2019s my brother who loved his little brother.
\nAnd when the light goes past and time
\nslows down to let me see,
\nI will watch the parade of things
\ngone by,
\nand touch them gently, not to change anything,
\nand whisper, you are everything
\nthat will ever mean anything,
\nand maybe they will look aside
\nas if they heard me,
\nor felt my heart beating
\nor my hand trembling,
\nand I\u2019ll remember,
\nOh yes! They waved invisible flies away
\nwhen I was small and saw nothing.
\nThen know it was me,
\nwatching from the edge
\nof a far away place.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
