By John Patrick Robbins
These are the last pages I will ever write for you.
My lines are far to worn my thoughts spent in false hopes now buried by my ever clear and present vices.
Tears no longer remain, and the storm washed clean ever present reminder that I can never truly drink away.
The past if you are not careful will bury you in regrets.
Nothing burns better than the thoughts that could have changed it all.
I fight more than you can ever fathom , and I know true words fall flat upon deaf ears turned that way so long ago by me.
This was never a mystery I could never solve.
It was simple as life and death.
Truth is stranger than fiction I have lived it one page turn at a time.
I cannot pen them anymore for what entertains you is destroying me.
These are my finale words.
