SHALL I BID YOU ADIEU
Mine eyes have seen
Yet often deceive me
Showing me many things
That I choose to believe
But just not meant for me
And time tells all
Whether I stand or fall
Attempting to live life
In a way not conducive
For what I need most
To not boast or toast
To what’s happening near
Decisions often made
From desperation and fear
Yet hard to shed a tear
For the one you hold most dear
Because the love and admiration
That was once there
Has now dissipated
Without a trace
And this can be seen
Written across my face
As I walk across
A path lit up with light
Yet still wandering the whole time
Does this actually feel right
As the air graces my being
And more of the reason
As I continue to feel
Out of season
But with slights of nice rain
Looking at the ground beneath my feet
Leaving behind a footstep that remained
And though this may seem strange
How I feel and think
With every decision made and acted upon
At the very brink
Of self discovery again
Looking for this life
To start over and begin
Following a very different road
The next time around
And will be lost no longer
Because I would’ve been found
Stepping off the very clouds
That surround
The sky and never asking why
But rather just live
And learning to smile again
As I head away from
All past drama and conflicts
Stress and strife
Because of it
Cause I choose to be
Different in every way
That most will see
And get back to being
The real version of me
Leaving behind everything
That just hindered my way
And plans in progress
To live for a brighter day
Accepting and embracing
The new truth
And in this regard
To the old life
Shall I bid you adieu
Where writing comes alive
