What if I told you
I was a king
Lost on a throne
In the heavens dancing
I used to rule
My rage filtering the helplessness
Complimenting my queen
But leaving me defenseless
Eyes roll
Knuckles crack
Head hurts
Broken back
Working nonstop
Into a void of lies
Never caring
As the time flies
Took it all for granted
A sweet affair
Never loved enough
Feelings flare
I was at every party
But not in my kingdom
Unprepared for war
I let the lions win
And oh they roared
Defeaning me
Silencing my thoughts
Only fears they leave
Scared of losing
But I lost
Scared of being alone
But abandoned it
My home
Where my family stands
Too frightened to go back
I can't meet the demands
So I'll just travel this mortal world
The wind on my skin
Sea salt in my hair
I'll just constantly thin
Deeply divided
Trapped as this
Never truly knew
Who I would miss
I never noticed the beauty
Your world holds
There's so much I haven't known
Heartbeats flash before my eyes
I've never seen the sunset before
Reds contrasting the impeding darkness
Reminds me of my soul that yearns
For the relationship of loss
As the beam it flashes
Lands on my skin
Rose gold on this earth
Leaving them to win
*****
And I walk away, leaving my people who love no more.
