Work Text:
I am tall and rather slim, true, having an advantage of these artificial limbs
And as I look down at you, our littlest of Kids,
I am dreading the day you will be older, taller, and ready to leave our small nest
Because this time having been spent, as a family, with you, has been the best
And that is something, no matter what happened, I would never change
But I am also proud of you, even now, you, our little child, having come so far
Learning everything there is to know from all of us, and then some, by far
And there is really only one thing I can ask from you to do
That you, Kid, will to put it all into a very good use
For our kind and those out there in the galaxy fighting, but I’m sure you would
And when that dreaded moment is finally here
I will have no regrets in letting you go out there into the wide open, having no fears
When spreading your wings wide and on your own tall legs you’ll stand
Wherever the place it is you may just upon land
Alas, an adult you may be, taller than most of our family
But you’re still our little one, our short Kid
The tiny version of us all, us clones, and that’s the gist
For now, I can only hope when you look up to me
That what you will there see, is something you will cherish inside of thee
And keep those emotions close to your heart, when we are all gone
