My first attempt at poetry. Hope you enjoy it. :)


Misfortunes

Misguided

Mistaken

Mislead

.

A man

Of a million masks

.

Proud

And in love

.

Great

And strong

.

Cleaning the mess

No questions asked

.

Death takes its toll

Breaks him apart

Darkness worms

Into his heart

.

He's burned

And he's broken

Angry at the world

.

At his Captain,

Oh Captain

.

The metal woman

A broken boy

Linked forever

Torn apart

.

Oh Captain!

He cries

To Captain

He lies

.

Broken and angry

In love but afraid

.

A traitor

A fraud

But not unloved

.

To Captain

He cries

Remember

He sighs

.

With his Captain

He dies

.

Love left unspoken

But not unloved

.

Remember

He sighs

Always!

Captain cries

.

Together they die

But it is a lie

Captain, Oh Captain

Why?
