Time and again, I've seen the future
felt where the metro door would stop
seen the fall before ever the ground broke
known what any path would hold without having ever walked it.
Every day, I've loved the present
known that it holds the universe entire
felt the weight slip off my shoulders
when the line between here and there vanished
tonight, I smell rain coming a long way off
a great storm that will sweep me up
and leave behind that which once was my life
Tonight, I feel the greatest satisfaction
coming a long way off.
