Let me be not the anchor that keeps your heart, the ship at a port of misery. As I sail away upon the seas of the after life, may hope be the wind that kisses my sails. Watch me go into the sunset not with tears of loss but with a smile that
wrote this a while back
I poured out my heart,and emotions put my cards there on the table, nothing in life is garanteed, just feel better that I was able, to say the things I needed to say, at least this way I get closure, never meant to chase you away I'm not sorry
