Silence, I am your child from the beginning
My true hearted friend, an innate twinning
So much to cherish in you, so much to mourn
If only I can impart a page of my book now torn

Express for me what I cannot now say
Forget the agony of what I cannot play
Immerse yourself in the poetic remedy
Live life in my words, this fading melody

Do not yearn for a better world to own
For it is already written, performed and known
Every thought I penned into a poem for you
Every wish for the nights to turn into blue

I wrote for the dark, I wrote for the light
I died for the enchanted, a heart to ignite
Built a kingdom, I thought would now stand
But failed in my quest to manifest this land

Never yearn once again, oh the eternal sigh
Only my last breath a solace bestowed on high
Forget the written words from the tip of my pen
Remember only the poet's pain now if you can

For I have given them a piece of my soul
A comforting refuge, to make them whole
Revelling in this moment, desiring the time
The sweet melody of the poem in every rhyme

Revive in me a worth and it's passionate plea
Show me it's essence a true vision I can now see
Regret the time wasted and honestly unflavored
Sighing a tear, washing away all I had labored

Only time will tell if I mattered even a low degree
I am only a stone rippling, thrown into a vast sea
Emotive poem about the poet. Word count 265.
