You wanna know?

the prince of thieves

it wasn't the same without him

they respected him like a god
and loved him like a family member

and yet he was the loneliest boy in the busiest room

moving through all his admirers like a ghost
lovers and poets and musicians all made him their muse

but he just preferred to live
in total isolation

how did they not know
that he was so lost
between heaven and the black abyss?

when they were so shocked to find,

he ended his life
with a quick swan dive
into the ocean

and the ocean,
knowing who he was,
embraced his body so enthusiastically
like two reunited lovers, pulling him deep into that blue eternity
where he just became nothing but a passing thought
on the minds of all those who once adored him.
