Farewell To This Life

Time for me to say
My last goodbye.
If this mind and outlook of mine
Won't change once I leave.
Then I may attempt
What I've been thinking of
From within those past years.
I've isolated myself long enough;
So no one will any longer be as close to me.
I've already written and spoken
My truest of feelings.
Some day it may be time for me to say
My last goodbye to whatever happiness
That has been left behind
Deep within my mind.

The loss you are feeling vibrates with your words. Your grief speaks volumes about your ability to love. Stick around and write more.

Do not say goodbye...my friend. We have so much here to do. The tea party under the big tree has just started...all are welcome... There is punch and bagels, cake and steak... crayons and paint, and a magic crocket set. You have been chosen first, captain of the team. Hugs. Ann

Marissa, this is a powerful piece... "I've already written and spoken My truest of feelings."--but there are more to come... Praying there are many of peace and joy! Blessings dear Poet <3
