~Speak Like a Child~
A Cowboy Bebop Poem
By: Katie Seals
------------------------------------------------------

Speak like a child,
for your past is vacuous,
and your future is fading.

Cry for the angels,
for your heart is tattered,
yet your eyes are open.

Let the bleeding prevail,
because there is no stairway,
there is no reason.

Do you not see,
that this is not your moment,
these are not your wounds.

Yes
There are two paths you can go by
But in the long run,
it is only a mistaken fortune.

Does it make you wonder?
Why your tears are thristy,
and why your spirit is crying for leaving.

Yet
Do not fear
It is only the beginning.

Reside in your hope,
For the echoing mockery is ending,
and your dreams are no longer in defeat.

And as you wind on down the road,
Listen...
For they are calling.

Speak like a child,
for there is always oneself,
buying your last seconds passing by.

It's a short poem about Faye and her past. But I seem to like it a
little.... maybe..
