The tin man

The tin man

A Poem by samuel foxtrot

the tin man
dear love or dear lost friend,
the architect of my fondest days
i regret to say, I am rusting away
And have but little time left to spent.
soon i will stand changed and forsaken
for my soul, the rust has already taken
my arms,my legs it's eaten hollow
and i fear my heart is soon to follow.

I am no longer as I was, before 
the seasons of wind and rain
and any attempt to restore
me would allas be in vain.
but for you, my love ,i collected the few
shattered pieces of my corroding soul.
to wright this simple request to you 
before the rust consumes me whole;

remember me as i was in your fondest memory
never with my name adress the monster I am to be
or believe him to be me in any way or sense
and think of me as dead when this letter ends

yours truelly for the last time, The Tin Man.
