Final Words


To Whom it may concern, 

Is how my life was started

This letter is a point of no return

And should not be read by the fainthearted

I need to get some things off my chest

And If I may, if I might

Make this small request

Let me make things right

I know I have hurt you

I could have been a better brother

This may be a little overdue

So I hope it isn't a bother

It was easier for you to let go

But I have been under so much regret

I'm sorry I couldnt watch you grow

I have been buried by my debt

I have had so many questions

And never got any answers

Been under so many impressions

Been through so many standards

I have had time to reflect

Time to let go of the past

And noticed this had gone unchecked

And at long last

I can finally say

Im sorry

Sorry I couldn't be there when you needed me

Or to tell you it would be alright

And im sorry I couldn't say this sooner

I hope you can forgive me

For this old body may not last any longer

But I hope that you see

That I have regained my honor

And with my Final Words

Goodbye my sisters and brothers

Well first things first, I suffer from crazy and weird syndrome. Its self-inflicted. I enjoy Poetry very much and to me Poetry is more than just words, its an Idea, and according to V from V For Vendetta "Idea's are bulletproof." I have always enjoyed things that bring inspiration to me and others and Poetry is just that. I love making new friends. So here is my email: [email protected]. And also if you want to find me on Facebook: Cody Koehn. Send me a message or friend me on Facebook. If you have any questions on my style of writing and/or I am very open to suggestions on how to improve my poetry. Thank you for reading and I hope to hear from some of you guys. And feel free to give me any feedback on my poems. Till then, keep writing your own story guys!

<p>I really liked this piece i thought it was fantastic the rhyme kept me on edge and the eraticness of it really flowed well. the content was great and the begining was really radical. just a job well done</p>
