To Whom It May Concern

To Whom It May Concern; if you are reading this I have already given up.

Please don’t be distressed, please remember me as I was; ignore the gossip.

To Whom It May Concern; I came into this world flawed and sadly defective.

Fought through the challenges and failed; may you find it in you to forgive.

To Whom It May Concern; sometimes goodbye is the only way to freedom.

Outside I hear the wind rustling the leaves; singing in my ear; my anthem.

To Whom It May Concern; I leave you now to fade into the dark of night.

Take comfort in the notion that we will meet again; for I will always fight.

Adieu to You

Such a significant impact on my life but I can’t remember your face anymore.

Taught me how to give, to receive, to love and to be human; yet I’m still unsure.

Left here too soon, left me alone; left behind a heart so broken I can’t carry on.

I strain trying to remember your smell, remember your touch; but you’re gone.

Promises made, promises kept in your honor; my only ties to your beautiful spirit.

Dead before you, alive with you; now I’m in-between without you – your sad poet.

Tears pour down as I finally find a mental imagine of you; long buried and misplaced.

I say my final goodbye to you; the man you loved died with you and has been replaced.
