The Last Post

So sorry am I about the last post from which this mortal did make.

It read more like a weak mans cry who had just attended his own wake.

I truly did not mean to come off in such a sorry way.

I just sought some relief by writing to keep the darkness at bay.

So if you dear reader of the last post did partake.

Forgive its dour deposition for goodness sake.

From now own I do contend to write of pretty things till the end.

Yet if sometime from this happy pen I should stray…

Just see it as a mild fluctuation in an otherwise normal day.

For really…nothing last forever…not even the shadows that brings the rain.
