please slay the beasts
that guides my thoughts
and bind the angels
thy soul they wrought
in autumns life
and top of grey
my burdens mount
at dusk of day
the one way out
i cannot take
or my one love
I will forsake
disown the sweet
the gentle smiles
as I traverse
my finale miles

What would we do without those “sweet and gentle smiles”?
Stay strong. You have a lot to offer all of us.
