Daddy Long Legs, where do you think you're going today? You dream so close, but they're all so far away - can you feel it now? Mockingbird, go find another to fool today. What you want is not what you say. And all these things that we hold so close may one day go and give up the ghost. Clever fox, how could you say such awful things? Whenever has it brought you anything? Who's laughing now? Timid boy, rise above it all and make your own name. You never once thought you'd find a place you'd want to stay. And all these things that we hold so close may one day go and give up the ghost, but if you try and make the most of what you've got then you'll never wind up lost.

Katie 01:53
Look up into the sky, see the rockets as they fly. Upper atmosphere, disappeared without a trace - just like you, February 29th, 2012. See the contrails as they form in its wake just like a cloud. Astronaut girl, where'd you go to without a life cord to bring you back to Mother Base? Please return to me at once. Nothing ever held you back, you owned your destiny. Never had you even once considered returning. And now there's nothing left, just an empty room in a house with memories that never fade away. Your poor Mother - how she cried - and your Father had denied when they came across your final scene, a picture-perfect exit with the note where you spelt it out: "Please don't come looking for me." Still when I'm alone at night, I swear I feel you by my side. We sink into the bed, cease to exist and drift forevermore out amongst those galaxies that you'd always found so beautiful. Katie, can't you see that you belong on Earth with everyone?

It's Okay 01:51
I often feel that I know just what you're thinking of, my dear, and I wanted you to know that it's okay, that we're okay. Do you remember the things I told you when I held you close? I'll remind you 'cause you need to hear it: you're okay, yes, you're okay.

about

It's like the title says. The first two were started in 2016 and 2018 respectively, and the last is from this summer. It felt good to finally finish these pieces.
