My Final Goodbye
I'm writing this poem to
say my final goodbye,
the time has come for
me to lay down and die.
People who supported me
are being taken away,
others don't take me serious,but
this time I am not going to play.
When I get where I'm going
there will be only happy tears,
I will shed my sins and struggles
I have carried all these years.
So much pain and so much darkness
in this world we stumble through,
questions I can't answer and
so much work to do.
Please don't let yourself be
overcome with sorrow,
just keep looking ahead
for a brighter tomorrow.
Simple things in life I
just let slip away,
but you never know
I might be back some day.
