"She's so young", he said.
His usual nature as of late
(When faced with reality)
Vanished.
Doused in the postpartum
Euphoria ignited by his late queen.
His thoughts now stumble.
"Fuck it!", he exclaimed.
"I don't care anymore."
A lie not even his mother could
Pretend
To believe out of love.
He
Cared
Too much about others.
Not for them.
For himself through them.
A poison most fatal.
A shame he will
Never
Be
Free.
