“My work complete, A job well done. I must say, It was damn fun. Now I fade, As I always do, Into a fragment of memory, Lost inside you. A shadow, Of what was for a time, The silly giggles, The laughter, Of words, That rhyme. Love's great fool, Exposed for all to see, I wonder, Will any remember, One such as me? Impossibly found, Simply replaced, A product of all, That I have faced. One day perhaps, You'll remember with a smile, Love's Champion, You knew for awhile. Either way, I shall be sad, Missing the friend, The Love, I once had. And so off I go, Into the Dream, Of Love unbound, And Love never seen. I bow to one, You know who you are, Know in your heart, From you, I am never far. I cry as I go, As my beautiful heart weeps, I scream as I giggle, And my exquisite Soul Sleeps.”
