golden boy
is what they called him
but he soon found
that all that g l i t t e r e d
is not g o l d
and when he found himself
abandoned
by his Argonauts
his loyal companions
when he found himself
old,
tired,
he lied down
on his final resting place
underneath the sterm of his trusted Argo
and his sorceress came for him
lulling him into an eternal sleep
sleep now, sailor,
sleep now, beautiful liar
maybe i'll see you in a different life
where we're both other people
where you're not a king
and i'm not a princess
maybe then,
we'll finally have a fair chance.
sweet dreams, my golden boy
and may we meet again.
