This one is based on those love stories where the guy always kills himself because he's:
A) Depressed
B) Wants to save the girl and kills himself in the process
C) Delusional
So I used Brendan as my ... example ... thing. Lol. Enjoy!
He ran a hand down the cold steel knife,
Ready to strike when the time was right.
The knife, it fell in such a clatter,
He fell over and wondered what was the matter.
- - -
A quiet voice hissed from the back of his head,
"Guess what, kid, you now are dead."
"Then why do you speak?" the kid did ponder.
The voice ignored and asked, "Why did you squander?"
- - -
"You threw your life away like an old shoe.
You still had many things to do.
But now that is that for now you have died,
Because you committed suicide."
- - -
"But it cannot be!" the boy debated,
"I live to be master; I've always waited."
The voice hissed back, "You took a knife,
And stabbed through your heart, ending your life."
- - -
"NO YOU LIE!" the boy did scream.
"GET OUT OF MY HEAD, YOU EVIL FIEND!"
"But I will be here," the voice did reply.
"Forever and ever, I will never die!"
- - -
With a cackle of laughter, the voice disappeared,
Leaving the boy with his sadness and tears.
"Why am I punished?" the boy did yell,
"I died for my love, and now I'm in hell?"
- - -
Back to reality, two boys on the floor,
one the poet, the other, editor.
Brendan, the poet, let Wally read his work
before he gave it to May with a triumphant smirk.
- - -
Wally, though, laughed and rolled on the ground,
Brendan just frowned and sulked without sound.
Frustrated, the white-haired kid dared to ask,
"Why do you laugh, you loser jackass?"
- - -
"It's just so funny!" the green one replied,
"'I died for my love!' Oh Latios, what a lie!
You die for May? Oh, god, what a laugh!
It's funny stuff to me on my behalf!"
- - -
"The boy is me!" Brendan argued back.
"It shows that I love May, you stupid-ass prat!"
"But to Wally, it's funny," the other dared to reply,
"'All because you committed suicide!'"
- - -
The green-one chuckled, tears in his eyes,
The white-haired sighed, beginning to hate his ally.
"Will you stop laughing?" he started to bellow,
"I'm losing my cool, my calm, my mellow!"
- - -
"Aw, no shit! Did I do all that?"
Wally asked, laying on his back flat.
"Oh, just ignore me. I don't know your 'art,'
And I don't want you to 'stab yourself in the heart!'"
- - -
"I especially love this old shoe shit."
Wally held in his laughter by biting his lip.
"It's quite funny really how you compare
the death of a life to an old shoe scare."
- - -
"You just don't get it! Not at all!"
Brendan shouted in quite a brawl.
"You're not in love, so you don't understand
what it's like to be me firsthand."
- - -
"That's just BS.
I think your head is messed.
Dude, you need to get a life
and stop pretending May's your wife."
- - -
"Latios, just leave,
And let me grieve!
I don't need you!
So go; I'm through!"
- - -
"But I'm afraid if I go,
you'll go down below.
To that place with the flames
because of your damn games."
- - -
"Because that makes SO much sense.
God, you're so friggin' dense!
I won't kill myself,
You short, green-haired elf."
- - -
"Aw, damn you will not?!
Well that just sucks cock!"
"Yeah, you now need to leave,
Before I get peeved."
- - -
"All right. I'm going,
But I'll leave knowing,
That your poem sucks ass,
And it don't surpass."
- - -
Wally left, leaving Brendan alone,
to read over his work or to moan and groan.
Brendan sighed and took his paper,
But then he realized his poem WAS a caper.
- - -
"I wrote this?" he managed to exclaim.
"Maybe I will give this to May but write Wally's name!"
Brendan, he sighed and laid his head on the floor
to rest a bit and to think some more.
- - -
"Ppfht, suicide, like that'll make May any happy.
Maybe I'll write something that sounds really sappy!
Nah, that's lame too. I quit this poem shit!
Maybe I'll write about our journeys ... Yeah, that's it!"
- - -
So the boy began to write about his journey with May
with all his witty remarks and those fun things to say.
Some people love 'em, to some they annoy
But all I gotta say is. "Oh fuckin' joy."
