Good bye, the Eagle will fly no more With weeping heart, I say good bye With tears that never can dry With emotions I cannot say I'm sorry that I have to part this way Long have I thought of what to do? Should I be leaving all of you? Should I wrestle and stay? Should I keep going to enlighten your day? There emotions I cannot say I' sorry that I have to part this way I will make this "good bye" brief I cannot just steal away like done by a thief Cannot let you know how I feel Can only say this day doesn't seems real With emotions I cannot say I'm sorry that I have to part this way I will remember you all, the way I know I will try hard and no tear will show This time please be certain I won't came back again to raise the curtain I will leave just as I came Quietly, as a pawn will leave the game The Passion was like a nest A family I would say at its best But my wings haven't grown Not too many feathers are shown I have to land and cannot take flight I have to leave your protective sight With emotions I cannot say I'm sorry that I have to part this way I will take with me a piece form all of you Know that I always will love you's too But I cannot stay or even sneak It would hurt you and me to deep Life goes on for that I'm certain Saying this I now lower the curtain The chevalier takes his last bow Sad in his heart he will leave the show The Knight in shining armor has to go Please do smile, and even so A Poet once this sentence penned A Man is rich who has a friend I know today, this to be true He must have had friends like you Do not frown and do not cry For I have to say the hardest words " Good bye" Wishing you all well, health, freedom and peace I wish you the most important thing of all With this, my last call I wish you "Love" My heart aches and my eyes are sore As the Eagle will fly no more I will refrain to post here any names. The ones I love, they know The once I adore, they know The once I cherish, they know The once I admire, they know The once I reflect upon, they know God Bless you all The ability to describe life with words is similar to painting a picture; both can be powerful tools. |

Although I have not been with P assions all that long, I've been here long enough to know that you hold within you a heart of gold. Long may you live in peace and prosperity. I am not a preacher, I just speak the world as I see it. |
