Final farewell

The end of time , the end of life

Final Farewell

My Feet stand on shaky ground
Not long before it caves beneath me
Carrying with it my desires and dreams
The ability to step away long gone.

My fate rests upon the shoulders of others
The smell of freedom only a metre away
But my soul denies that which should be mine
And with my tears, my hopes wash away.

As long as my heart beats is there still time
Although I have already gained my answer,
The difficulties my heart faces
Leaving behind, a small part of myself.

My feet shuffle closer to the edge
My heart pounds to a rhythm of death
As I stand here in my final moments
All I must say is goodbye.

Fleeting images flash through my mind
My children’s faces sorrowed and grim,
My belief in truth and honesty, gone.
To those I love, I love you, I’m sorry. I’m gone.
