Daddy*

I killed a man today...
His future was ending sooner than he expected
I knew I was going to write about...
This man, father, abuelo, lost soul...
Lost soul, due to the fact that...
He lost his soul...
I think we forget that, that's thee only,
 sane part of our bodies...
Bodies, bc we are seperate...
 Myself & I tend to disagree...
On mutual feelings...
feelings of what just happened...
I will never understand why you felt,
 like he had to leave...
Staying with us, may have been your...
Best Option...
But you opt'd out...
 Tears for you are presserved...
Until we meet again...
I will finally get the chance ...
To see you again...
In your greatest state...
Home with your mon & the rest of the...
World...
Curled in Swirls...
My body twitches... Especially my eyes...
Never again will I let my eyes see this...
So, as I watch this man, father, abuelo...
Lost Soul... kill himself...
I will remember the death...
of a great man...


REST IN PLUSH -DADDY-

It's not moving... it's not sad.... it's not pitiful.... it's heart wrenching... The lost soul is now found. The greatest honor to read this. Thank you. ~shiki
