Free Fallin'

"Man, I think I screwed it up again."
Sitting in the dock of the bay the two figures were finishing off the last pair of beers.

"... You're kinda wasted, pal. Did it go wrong or...?"

"It didn't go at all. There's something missing in the equation, and I can't figure out what the hell it is, Sam."

"Nuts! there's a whole lotta songs out there, you should know better than anyone, Jimbo."

"Guess you're right... but tonight, on this small planet, I still haven't found what I'm looking for."

"Take it easy, man. At least you have nothing to regret this time..."

"I'm not so sure about that. Sometimes it sucks to be in my shoes. Anyways, I'm not flying... but I'm not drowning now."

"You said it, man... you sad it."

The wind blew softly. The picture vanished and just for a second it felt like being embraced from the back.

The tide was turning.
