_______________________________

My name is John Esler
and today I bid ado
to a world of hate
and approach life anew.

Thunder clouds will
set off in the sky,
as I sail past those
who left me behind.

They will see in me
the truth I kept
secret from them
in their ignorance.

My actions will force
those who can't see
to be aware of those
who are just like me.

I will be a symbol
beyond words or expression.
My sacrifice will be
that of holy intentions.

The beacon of light
that will shoot from
the rock I stand upon
will reach to the heavens,

converting those who see
the truth it posses
and the possibilities
that will come from it.

My imprint on this world
will sadly be forgotten,
but don't be dismayed
for more like I will arrive

to remind you of what
you have done to those
who have been sacrifices
for the good of mankind.

lol yeah I'm not sure if this is crazy profound or emo.
Probably all three in places, so I'll consintrate on the profound, and try to ignore the...other stuff.
Great poem anyway! I realy enjoyed it.

"Be Strong and Always Remember what made you you." Earl

"Ooo!!! Ooo!! I know! I know! um...he he" Earl
(Yes I am crazy)
