The Crown

Written August 11th, 2020

A crown manifests in the hole in his heart

His clawed hands desperately cling to it

As he places it upon his head, he hears cheers and praise

Yet none of it reaches his heart


A crown manifests in the hole in his heart

It weighs heavy on his mind

As he walks the corridors of his castle

Alone in his thoughts

Yet surrounded by adoration


A crown manifests in the hole in his heart

He questions why it's even there

He wonders why he needs it

And yet, he clings to it still


A crown manifests in the hole in his heart

And the hole is left unfilled
