Quickly deflating
The air escapes the balloon
Letting it go limp
Flat on the carpet
A pitiful thing to see
Sad little balloon
But the air still flies
Though the balloon has fallen
Life still goes onward
Once just helium
And crammed tightly together
Can now spread outwards
Joining with others
Helium meets Oxygen,
Nitrogen, Carbon
Air mingles with air
And expands into the sky
And the universe
The balloon is lost
But the helium is saved
Unshackled and free
Hastily-Made Decision
