2nd Place
You lost, Marshall.
Came in second place.
Always replaced.
Variable placement.
You lost, Marshall.
You're on the ground.
Shivering violently, eyes pouring.
Bawling just above the audible level.
Marshall.
Your father told you,
"Lose it to the one you love more than anything,
The one you plan to marry."
So I listened.
But his voice,
It only traveled so far.
Stayed within these walls.
Stop shivering, Marshall.
You. Lost.
It
is lost.
And it's your fault.
-- I am to blame.
-- And nothing will be the same.
-- Gold turned to stone.
-- So bright it once shown.
