Death of the Mime
His makeup is pasted on him as though a ghost
The makeup was taken from my very last breath
The lack of blood in my veins caused it to be white
As the mime prepares for his reenactment of my death
The knife that was placed with tact in my heart
Was buried so deeply as if it were Excalibur
Only a true King of people could take it apart
Though my King is dead next to me….I killed him
The mime as a showman prepares to deliver my scene
Blood of white looks as my spirit received a fright
As I am looking down at two carcasses and a clown
My deliverance is stopped as Satan begins to frown
Why must Satan be so sad at my untimely death
Why when the clown relives my empty breath
That lonely King was sent to free Excalibur from my chest
But I killed him in fear that he was sent from Satan's desk
My fear of people sent to be my aid
Resulted in a leader so brave it made Satan cringe
However if this is the case why does Satan cry
This is the case for the mime only knows why
Satan's tears of blood stream down his lonely face
Wrinkles to deep as if the grand canyon was in place
Satan screamed why as his hero lay on the floor
Although he was good, the King was a real leader and more
If this King that I killed was so good that Lucifer even cries
Why do I kill my hero with such demise
Why does the mime not shed a damn tear
For the hero of the hour is lying dead next to fear
The mime removes his paint only yet to reveal
An even lonelier body without a soul to revere
The mime spread his wings of might
As the mime revealed his trueness of flight
Satan cries turned to fear as he saw who it was
The holy one standing tall with a look of despise
For the King on the floor was sent by his hand
To remove the knife from my heart and place it in Satan's back
I stopped the death of the one who killed me
I out of fear turned to my hero and now the devil lives
I will truly be banished from the pearly life of glee
I will now be in eternal fear for I feared my hero
