he was the greatest prince in the world
he was the pettiest criminal
he was the greatest prince in the world
not because of his riches
or because of his country, splendid and gorgeous as it was
or because of his lifestyle, luxury upon luxury
or his looks, pretty as lilies
no, he knew how to use words
twist them into beautiful sentences
wielded the power of shaping words
into becoming
his sword
he could have used it to fight
to hurt others with the vocabulary he built up
to break heart after heart
with his mighty weapon and shield
and yet he used it to fix
broken pieces long believed to be ruined
fixed them with words
softer than petals
make them feel loved again
feel wanted again
for the prince loved his people
and they loved him
perhaps that's why
he was drawn to the prince
no one knows
on a rainy night
the prince met his downfall
he swept in like a hurricane
stronger than anything else
with the evilest of intentions
yet the prince was
too kind-hearted
couldn't see past the pretty rose
what a pity
he didn't notice
the thorns
the prince lost his defenses, his walls
lost his first, lost his life
slowly his words
disappeared
in exchange for
this mysterious man
with doe eyes looking so innocent
who didn't like the way the prince
helped others
the prince was too
in it to realize
perhaps he was better off with
the lilies
they played cat-and-mouse for
six years
the prince fell in love
he left as fast as
he came
screams echoed
through the hallways
sobs begged him to
come back
yet he
left
leaving the prince heart-broken
the prince tried to
regain his life
without the man taking up
his space, his life
but love is like
that
breaking
your walls ever so
slowly
yet you don't realize that
you aren't the one
holding them up anymore
he was the greatest prince in the world
yet no one remembers him for the good he did
but his tragic death
yet he does
