Mlo Maylo

Milo Maylo,
what did you do now!?
Nothing he said,
but in his head,
his bad mouth had slipped again.

just today
he chased three students away,
all of them,
everyone of them,
crying.
he could apologize,
and emphasize
how sorry he was,
vowing it wont happen again.

but deep down he knew,
that the students he love,
hate him to death.
so they will never know why.

milo maylo,
where have you gone?
we found your dead body,
down in the lobby
apology in hand,
dried tears that once streamed down.

milo maylo,
how sorry we are,
though now that we know,
how you loved us so,
can we undo what's been done.
milo maylo,
we're sorry.
