Alas, a time has come to say farewell. But as I leave, I hope that you excel. The roads been tough, and we've pulled through. Doing what all artists do. So long my friends, who share this gift. I hope that you won't go adrift. Good luck for the future. And forget the past. As life moves on, this will not last. I'll still write, but to myself. Again, I wish you all the best wealth. Cheerio, for I must go. Thanks to all who loved me so.

Time has come to pass, and for the best; The youngsters prepare to leave the nest. Goodbyes and farewells are not far away, When months have shortened into days. To those who aid, help and teach, We'll promise not to be out of reach. And when a time has come since then, We'll return and meet again. If time is not what time describes, Swiftly, then will years subside. If all our hoes and dreams come true, We'll always have a space for you.

Dark early morning, a chill is about. Freezing your skin and your body through out. Look out the window, and what do you see, A whitened road and snow covered chimney. Brush off the frost outside of the window Close it back up, to stop the airflow. Go for your blanket to stare out again Tiny far foot prints down in the lane. Look at the sky, view the cool greyness. Rap up tighter from the frozen furnace. Notice it going by the rain now falling; Melting the snow on this Christmas morning. Watch all the white turn into black. Like receiving the coal from Santa's sack; You cannot see now, the rain covers the glass. Stare in wonder

Seal the entrance, close every door on me Shut light out, throw away the key. Chain up my ankles, tie up my hand Put a cage around me, fill it with sand. Leave me alone to rot in the dark Don't give me food, or make me eat bark. Take away my air, and leave me to die Just know I'll keep strong, I know I'll try. Break my bones and puncture my liver Punch and bruise, and then let me wither. Hide me from sight, and those that I care, Torment my mind, if only you'd dare. Turn friends against me make me the sinner But they soon know, that I'm the winner. Lie and deceive, but I know the truth I serve my turn, and I'll find proof. Hid

Silence falls across the land, With many males that lie... not stand. It's unusual to hear no screams No whizz-bangs and guns of any seems. I glance at a picture, that was sent From Harry of our regiment And inside my mind I can't help but see, Those bodies that are haunting me. The cries of men, the squeals of shells... I wake to hear the chiming bells. The church and all are in saddened glee. Of those the brave acts did free Us from the enemy. I sit alone within my chair, And even though there's no-one there; I still hear those teutonic days (Where men killed men in different ways) I wish I'd died, to rid this pain, (Of th

Raining days, and summer sun Has the best already come? Dark and grey, black and white. I guess that everyone was right. Mirrors smash, buildings fall The Sun has stopped for us all Mountains Crumble, Earth decays Hopeless, found in many ways Street lights brake, stars fade Life was an accident that was made Rock on rock, boulder on boulder coolness in the air that makes us colder Picture a shadow lost in the night Nothing to cling to as there is no light Picture a farmer, without his cattle Nothing to eat and cause a rattle Love what you do, and be what you can Fall for another, work with a van Climb Everest, dive in the deep sea Make li

If ever there was something good like meeting someone new. A friend among your neighbourhood who wants to get to know you. And if you feel so great inside where everything is right. There'd be no need to run and hide your secrets of the night. But then again there are some things That make you want to cry. Hurtful words, unpleasant stings like a needle in the eye. And if the world could leave you It would leave you on your own As there is nothing it can do When hurtful things are sown into your soul and in your mind you ask your self the questions. No helpful answers you will find Just lots of stored aggression. But overal

She seems so near and yet so far away. Far from the love that now has gone astray. The love was weak but seemed able to grow. But now it seems that I will never know. Damn you Cupid, How dare you blind her sight?! As now I live in darkness from the night. Drunken days, the nights I will avoid; As of the love we had I did destroyed. If a second chance be me a given, I'll live with you forever in heaven. Your love will always keep me hanging on. For I will surely cry if you were gone. So, hun I plead to see you no more harm. Your space reserved within my loving arms. Only wish to feel your angelic touch, Because; my darling dear,

What life created causes pain? What love leaves you left out in the rain? Why does the earth crumble at my feet? Should I just lie out in the street? There I should die, no warmth or shelter. Then lie in the gutter, my life in a helter skelter. Rapidly falling to it's demise. Or my waist shrinking to a nothing size. How can the world be full of misery? That, to me, is a mystery That will never be told. As my pain unfolds.

Throughout the cries of several men I feel it on my skin. On my breath and in my eyes The countless pain within. The trouble brews inside my soul Bubbles, boils and Splashes. I can't go on much longer In the cold and icy ashes. (Conditions a phoenix couldn't live in.) Yet here I am, standing in the blaze of flakes. And evermore exhausted by the heavy pricks and aches. Alone in in the winter sun, I count my hopes and dreams. I think of what I would like to see, and not what it all seems.
