How can someone so precious be so wrong?
How can someone so loved think they don't belong?
Was it because of the actions of another?
Was I not a good neighbor, was he not a good brother?
The hardest thing to bear,
was to think that we once made quite a pair.
He once was an innocent child,
stayed pure though he was beaten and reviled.
But even after all was said and done,
I thought that cruelty was reverse by a surrogate mother's love.
Irony sure can be bitter.
His final words are much colder and harsher than the darkest winter.
He falls to his knees and cries. "Why do the good die young?"
"Why do I feel like I'm the only one,
"Who's suffering through this valley of misery and pain."
"Does anyone else know that I'm dying in shame?"
I wish he'd have cried out,
then maybe I'd have helped purge him of his doubts.
Doubts in himself, doubts in his legacy.
Maybe I could have showed him that he wouldn't become who he didn't wanna' be.
I wish he'd have a taste of real freedom.
I wish he'd had forgiven himself for what he'd done.
His crimes were all to save another.
He did what he had to, he was a faithful friend, and a true brother.
"Why must this world be so cruel?""Why must those with all the power be such insolent fools?"
"Whose idea was it to turning living breathing people into mere assets?"
"And am I the only one, trying to sort out this brutal mess?"
"What's the point if we're doomed I fail?"
"She was just so sick, so pale."
"I tried to save her time and time again"
"I protected her,comforted her."
"I even killed someone to protect her future."
" And now she's dead!"
"my sins, my burdens they feel less abstract now and more like lead."
"As my tears fall I vow that they will pay."
"No one can get away with treating my little sister this way!"
And just like that his heart was filled with hate.
All love was lost, by then it was far too late.
For thus was the desires of those reversing fate.
So in his honor, and on this day,
for once we are going to do this thing the right way.
Just remember if our burdens seem to hard to bear,
they will become easier if we learn to share.
There will always be those who truly care.
Don't let hate consume you, and don't you quit, don't you dare.
So take a moment and play the underdog's fanfare.
Good will conquer evil in the end I swear!
Let your heart and mind take to the air!
Don't you know you can't fit a circle into a square?
Above all else reach out to everyone everywhere.
Oh that is my one and only, solemn prayer.
A/N *cries* I have been watching the anime Magi: The Labyrinth Of Magic lately, and after watching episode seventeen a few days ago, I am still very emotional about a certain thing that happens to a certain character *cough cough Kassim* His character is just so precious, and as much as I wanted to hate him I ended up loving him in the end. So this is probably my longest poem on here so far, just because I have so much to write about Kassim. This was written in the point of views of Alibaba, Kassim, as well as some of my thoughts and feelings as a third party. Hopefully you enjoyed this poem as much as I loved writing it. Happy new years. Love y'all -Reibun
