Forgive me for this transgression
but this is a sin I did not create
your take on life is as short-sighted
as I wish my take on fate.
While we struggled with a future
you dove into the abyss
of youth and love and persecution
there was nothing you would miss
A little death can cut through so much
effort and through regret
Wilting embers signaled treason
you had thought of time as set
There are rarely enough reasons
why you and I should ever meet
there were always better prisons
than to accept defeat.
