Legend
Michael Christopher Darling '01 The rain pours, I look up, stare up, and stare down, look at me, look at nothing, behold the battle scars on my body, I have been beaten, I do not know why, I only wanted, to be a nice guy, the blood runs of me, my blood, from my wounds, why am I? what shall I do? you have violated me, not sexually, my mentally, I thought you were a friend, but my back hurts, as my pride, perhaps this was another lesson, to show me, and guide me on the path, you intended me to be, I wish only to be a nice guy, guidance, I cry for it, you gave me power, you gave me a voice over the hundreds of people, you gave me the false hope, now look at me, you chase me throughout the lands, you scar me more, you and your band, are just fags and whores, what have I done to you? why do you treat me so? and the allies I needed, never came and protected my door, out of fear they not come, perhaps, I do not care, all is against me, and all shall pay, the rain pour and mixes, making the blood flow faster, I have no purpose, A dangerous thing indeed, what should I do? who can I trust? no one, A lesson taught to me well, he was suppose to be a friend, A father figure, but no more, violated, purged of all that is good, murder, death, kill, why me, stalking me, what did I do? why do I deserve this? all I wanted to do was be nice, I look up, and see a man, A large man, larger then most would be, he stands there, his arm stretched out, he plans to kill me, I just know, A fight I shall start, wait, where is his blade? my money is still here, he still looks, why, why does he wish to help me? do I accept? I do, for where else will I go, who else shall protect? I am doomed, I will be another victim of murder, I shall be a victim of death, or transformed into a man to kill, hope, he tells me, he baths me, he shows me the light he walks in, for when none all show light, he does, I am holy, I am like him, he has shown me, but can I bottle it up, and hide the hate, deep inside me it lurks, but him as person, has guided me to the light, I snap outta my reflecting and gaze, rain beating down, the cemetery is quiet, or so I think, the light, he guided, I follow, I stare at the tombstone, am I to blame? is it my fault? murder, death, kill, he protected, and I thank him, man, hero, step father, guidance I have lost from him, but he has shown me, but it still lies there, the blood, the pain, the hurt, I stare, it says only says one thing, engraved hard, engraved deep, it makes me think, everytime I read it, but I need that guidance, I have fallen, I read it again, try to embrace myself, try to get a grip, but the word, sinks deep, morals, pain, all there, I read again, murder, death, kill, why me, I read in my mind, I scream it out loud, I wish him back, I stare at the grave, please come home Sondo.
