Anonymous Poet 6 Share Posted January 8, 2022 (edited) The Poem of the Lost [!] Throughout Karosgrad, copies of a poem would be hung at various places for everyone to see by an anonymous writer. The handwrite seems to be put effort into yet still messy. There was once a kind man Who came to the world with nothing But aspirations and a plan He wished to travel, see horrors and wonders Yet soon after, it all shattered. The man fell. He fell in love with a place, with people, With unity, He became eager. The plan grew to ten And the aspirations thrice He wished to be a part To do his part. He was given a chance He was given trust But somewhere along the way He might have lost even that… His friends left His family grew apart He still tries to hold tight He was betrayed He was deceived Yet he is to blame even for that He was changing, He was not the man he knew He worked hard. He left his life behind He left his mind behind Sometimes even his heart behind He did his best but he wished he could rewind ‘What if I never stayed?’ Again and again it crossed his mind He would not have been loved But he also would not have been hurt He would not have been given a chance But he would not have hurt anyone He would have not disappointed anyone He would not have lost anyone He would not have been bad for anyone… The thoughts stood still As the man fell down Left alone standing With only papers and regret Left by his side. I am sorry. I am truly sorry. I will do better from now on. Edited January 8, 2022 by Anonymous Poet 6 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoodGuyMatt 7072 Share Posted January 8, 2022 Rovyk stumbled on the hung parchments during his next stroll through Karosgrad. He huffed in annoyance, and, unable to read, he'd go find his good pal Karl @Remaclusto read it to him. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
