Final Goodbye

The hurt runs deep, pierces through flesh and bone Heart and spirit have fled, now I'm truly alone The weight of the world on my shoulders keeps me at a knee The blistering pain blurs the visions that I do see Never has alone ever been so quiet and bitter Warrior throughout life, but now just a quitter Wanted by none, of use only to the ground Which waits to greet me, with love that knows no bounds So that I may rot and finally meet my eternal rest Just hurts to know that once I was truly blessed But that time has came and went, just a breath lost in cloud of smoke The last breath that leaves me as in this silence I choke But don't shed a tear for me, just know I really did try Your memories of me will fade away, so this is my final goodbye
