Farewell Goodbye

Born in darkness,locked up in solitude This is the elegy of a dying man The piano composing his lines I wanted my heart to be his home Walk within his forlorn poetry His tale of innocence Walk into his world and see His love letter to nobody His cross became is innocence In the garden he knelt He wrote for the man in Gethsemane The nightingale sung his song At last he drowned in beautiful eyes When he slept the fox came The serpent took his pride from him The serpent that was the fox "I am sorry my friends There is more I wanted to say There is more I wish I felt Just another life filled with tears Don't cry I am not worth crying for This is my last note to you If you should read this line remember not me But remember this lonely verse For it is the cry of a child at heart Wanting only the comfort of his mother's arms A chance to be loved as I loved you Instead I took a kiss of death My time has run out I fear not again My time will go in vain The cross was my innocence I am sorry I wish there was more to say Goodbye and dont cry for me This is my last farewelll"
