Just Today
If you are looking for the person
that used to live here
Then I am very sorry to inform you
dear friend
That person is sadly no longer
with us anymore
He left just before he packed away
1 final everlasting smile
And whatever remaining joy he had left
in his eyes , heart and soul for good
Then left because there was no more
damage this world could impart
And left before the only remaining shred
of whom that person they we're before
Eventually ended up succumbing and
submitting to bitterness and spite
Because they sadly lost the will and
stomach for the fight
In order to prevent them from becoming
They whom they never ever wished to be
Or wanted to become at all
