At Last Goodbye

A mystery lives in all the art, spoken words that once escaped the heart
Messages told in long twisted ways to touch the mind
Yet ones heart can truly understand the words and the moral it can find
I read today, and felt my heart crack in two parts

Time, and only time can heal me
As I have wept all my life truly I feel its a time for change
A bush spoke, and with every word my heart it broke
A message that flows truly free

A peace I once found here to write, only the fresh tears shall remain
Pieced words to battle align against my soul, I loose and I shiver in pain
Lost I am not, for I finally walk in Gods way
A peace that in me will for forever stay

A poet I part
A verse will always haunt my memory
Memories that pop up and smile slowly play
Alas no longer will I stray

Grateful to all
Poets of poets, cuplets and duets
Witness my greater fall?
I stand to my heart and I shall fight for my beliefs

The memory of this rhyme shall dwell with in this line
Greater is the challenge that lays ahead
Pause, fast forward, but don't ever rewind
Good bye, the poet is dead
