goodbye space captain
so long space pirate
farewell to the rebellion
blasted your way
Into our hearts
as you flew through the asteroid field
and saved us all
so cavalier and unfiltered as you
ran for your ship
farewell space captain
died as you live
we lost you
but will always remember
your heroic tales
and adventures
of faraway planets
and alien lifeforms
you taught us to be brave
and face our fears head on
you floated into space
as our innocence left us
you're gone
but not forgotten
your spirit lives on
farewell space captain
your ship will not return
