A Fall from Grace

A Fall from Grace

A Poem by Campbell Ford
"

I wrote this poem a few years ago and just recently found it again. I wrote it after a close friend died of a heroin overdose. I was a very inexperienced writer at the time.

"

A Fall from Grace

This poor soul’s childish cheer did not last

For in the end it led him to his fall

For what he conceived would be a blast

Sent him tumbling off the grace’s wall

But do not mock this poor soul’s fall from grace

For it was only by his choice that it was allowed

And as he skid broadside alongside tears, fears, and a shattered face

He alone let his dreams be tragically plowed

I wrote this when I was very young and having a hard time dealing with current events. It's not good but i just thought I would post it anyways.
