Goodbye

Maybe it's just me or something I learned from the road.
Im seen as a person I know longer know.
The wind has turned a chill and it's telling me to go.

A man can smile while dying inside.
Im empty no longer can i find that  common ground
inwhich to confide.

Alone  in a place I dont wanna be unable to speak 
for I am a coward whos held it in for so long  I cant even function
like a normal person.

I need to hear it's goona be alright but I know what lurks
in the distance i see the road ahead shouldI just allow  the pain
to consume me again.

I know the answer so with a heavy  heart 
to this book I write the final chapters end.

Maybe its a cowards act  its not so easy when you understand 
that in time you will lose anyway.
I am not a statue  made of stone. 
Content to stand cold and alone.


Nor do I wanna spend the rest of my life wishing for what does not 
yern for me.

When im found  I wonder  howit will be seen.
Anger is normal   I just ask that you never 
forget me.
