At Last Freedom Reigns

God Knows Where I Am A Tribute To Linda Bishop ________________ Within the inevitable passing of time The seasons fled like a distant dream ~ With the coming of spring The apple blossom's rose of beauty And softly along the winding stream A sad song played a tribute to thee For now she had gone, gone alone Through autumn's endless rain And Winters relentless snow Her life but now a story Through words etched in time In moments that had vanished With pencil, held in time..... She scratched her insane memoir Little notes within her head Bleeding upon the torn remnants Of hope her only pledge And now in sacred silence The ones who came to see To ponder of a broken life To live a dying dream ~ O' misery Sweet misery At last freedom reigns
