2012 – Poem to Alethion (by Rhisereld)

Forget the pain ::I might not even be here tomorrow ::It’s all the same ::The lies and hate, betrayal – creepers! ::Relax and smile :: ::Forget the lies ::The brutal indecisive choices ::The compromise ::50/50 in my dreams ::Try to let go ::He left for sin but now I’m better ::Buy a crossbow, go in style ::Relax and smile :: ::Forget the burns ::Remember that the man was crying ::It was my turn ::Fire played no part in it ::And so it hurt – flesh was melting ::Eyes all wide ::Think of good will left inside ::Relax and smile :: ::So now I’m cured ::The world seems worse than when we started. ::And now I’m sure ::Forgetting is the key! ::So stand up purified, mesmerised, dignified, ::Go in style ::Relax and smile.
