CATS | Memory | Star Wars style (Whitney Avalon)

#CATS and #StarWars #TheRiseofSkywalker arrive on the same day and both contain a respected character reaching the end of her journey.

I’m here feeling so low In the quiet, the stories all collect in my mind Far away and long ago Memory, I can feel them around me As they center and ground me Fun and fighting and fears I remember the stars were bright and shimmering then But they’ve dimmed over the years Every droid beep seems to beat A fatalistic warning I’ll keep insisting we go on resisting Persisting though in mourning Daylight on the next generation Our fierce Rey of sunshine Alongside Poe and Finn When the dawn comes my fight will be a memory too And a new hope will begin Alone in my own ways I can smile at the old days When we seemed more on course I remember the wars felt almost winnable then Seeking balance to the force Decades full of snarky quips Respect that’s earned by sorrow A lover dies; a brother’s life is over Yet I must face tomorrow Princess! How they all tried to mock me But by now you can’t knock me I’m a legend, no lie If you watch me, you’ll understand what sacrifice is And a new team walks the sky...
