Elyk was make believe.
A cheat from the start.
He was a tool used to cheat at games.
A little girl gave Elyk a face.
Many faces.
He was a multi-headed man.
One day, a friend peaked interest into the girl's toy.
And the girl wanted her friend to like her,
for them to be best friends eternally,
to never be alone,
and let the girl play with her toy.
Intrigued by its appearance, the friend set out to love the toy.
And she did, the little girl animated the toy,
made it out to what her friend wanted it to be.
It was the perfect toy, for any child.
Things got fishy though.
No toy should have multiple heads.
The girl figured that out, and fixed it.
Elyk now had one head.
A more carefully chosen head.
The ideal toy, the little girl made the toy
give the friend love letters,
poems, songs,
claimed everything to be his own finding,
and later found out
that his head could not be famous
his poems could not be someone else's
his essence could not be as fake as it was
but she only learned it after
everything collapsed on her
her friend realized
that elyks head was not real
so gorgeous, but not one of a kind
his poetry, songs and love letters somehow
perfectly matched ones on other poets and artist's sites
their relationship shared one thing in common,
the little girl,
who was now delusional for trying to use
elyk to make her best friend like her more
and the two girls could no longer be friends
the little girl was now picked on
by what used to be her inner circle
stabbed in the back
and forced to move on to another group of friends
but she had this new-found feeling of attention
something her world lacked for so long
and she made another toy
another voodoo doll so to speak
for different friends this time
named ekard.
