If you
stab
him
He will get back up
He will still be strong
If you
beat
him
He WILL get back up
He'll be stronger because of it
You can NOT
destroy him
Emotionaly
But physicaly
He's so weak
Any moment now
He could
Fall down
And
Die
And that
That is what you wanted in the first place
Wasn't it?

This is powerful....and heartbreaking. Excellent work Joy.

Those who dream by day are cognizant of many things which escape those who dream only by night.

filling my head
with blood

and dread
the executioner's song."
