One Last Tear

This is a good day to die My head held high I hear the call I gave it my all My life laid on the line You won’t hear me whine I’ve shed a tear my last I’ve had a blast I leave it all behind Utmost traces of my mind Love joy and regret Releasing all lest I forget Lofty sounds of stringed guitars One final kiss to moon and stars Brazen unshackled freedom En route for unearthly kingdom Submitted on February 5, 2019 for contest ONE LAST TEAR sponsored by SILENT ONE - RANKED 3RD

You have a knack for saying so much in such small poems; love the imagery in this one. Best of luck with it in the contest.

Very nicely done, Line! We arrived at the same place with this theme. Many others chose to focus on relationships ending. Best wishes in the contest, Carolyn
