Some called it our awakening
Others said it was our doom
Some were ashamed, some proud
Did you see it? were you there?
Did you see what happened
A moment foretold of destiny
A future never seemed so clear
A past never mattered less
I was there and stood at the chasm
Saw the rifts rising above
Separating us from our legacy
There is nothing that was so near
It was no longer if we go, but how
And then we entered the future
All our beliefs were confirmed
Along with all of our fears
The end now called
It was beckoning
Come forward
With no uncertain terms
We'd be reunited with the lost
Our species made whole
Once again, forever to thrive
Made anew
Our lifeforms were restored
By the hope offered
By a new life
We found a purpose
And so much more
