[Warning: It is literally just my second try writing an experimentatory (is that a word? No, Grammarly says it is not, but moving on-) poem, and this will most likely be unreadable in a poetic way (is that a thing? I don’t think that’s a thing…). So please bear with me as I have no idea what I am doing and I (probably) just threw a bunch of words that rhyme together.]44Please respect copyright.PENANAD4G5oWISFR

The Proud hurts his True Love 44Please respect copyright.PENANAMP8w4pyk7Z
Can you hear the tender words not spoken, the pleasant voices unheard?
Can you feel the gentle touch of love unwilling to reveal?
You say you regret it yet you raise your hand to hurt
Your true feeling not wanting to show because the truth; you conceal
Choose anguish and pain over the joy of mirth
Continue to rip out his wound, don’t allow it to heal…44Please respect copyright.PENANA6UY87OetXB
The Proud refuses to admit44Please respect copyright.PENANAAz7P8i4f7F
You liar, you liar! You king of deceptions…
Holding your head high like a stubborn elk
What a liar, a liar! You stare at your reflection
Feeling so grand of the lies that you told
Wear a new mask, fresh out of the mold
You’re feeling so proud, knowing they don’t see (talking about the truth here)
Erasing all the traces, leaving no clue
Celebrate, celebrate with glee! (I’ve truly gone mad)
But who did you deceive, truly, just who?
Clearly, also was he, certainly not me
Then who else, who?
In the end, the one you truly lied to was you44Please respect copyright.PENANA6xEFcyG8nc
Just a little something44Please respect copyright.PENANA1lkj2GCr9W
That day you thought he abandoned his own to protect the world44Please respect copyright.PENANAEvRIvLfXBV
“Others over self”44Please respect copyright.PENANA9gBxrgPFY4
You were truly so naive as to think he was that selfless44Please respect copyright.PENANADBMKuHdvqY
“The need of others before the delight of self”44Please respect copyright.PENANAVb5jsWaRy2
You were so sure he chose to protect the people44Please respect copyright.PENANAPQbZOuW4Y4
“Selflessness in endless glory”44Please respect copyright.PENANAhQUffgslCk
In the end, he chose himself44Please respect copyright.PENANAh8NBkPH7a1

Selflessness in endless glory
Selflessness beyond the greatest
Could you give your life for me?
Ashes that seem like golden dust44Please respect copyright.PENANArYdGrOh67O
Keeping it to myself
Because you did
You were on the highest shelf
Nothing left to rebuild
You did44Please respect copyright.PENANAF5KKRa6TTg

There once was a man in Linyi whose heart died at twenty
Meanwhile, a woman ran to the man, not willing to receive me
To whom shall the poor confide? To whom shall they run to?
The rich, they lied. The weak had no one to run to
No one would cry even if they die, and no one would miss them
The “righteous” only heave a heavy sigh and then they’d dismiss them
The weak, the poor, their dead bodies thrown in the moor
Yet the righteous, the powerful had their corpses adorned with gold
For what? I ask. For what is it for?
The spirit will die, the body will rot, and the food will grow mould44Please respect copyright.PENANAO5Rx8jCzIk
The fair, the just, justice is a must
Yet revenge is dirty, it is frowned upon
It’s just a change of words; love and lust44Please respect copyright.PENANAK1kkAzycTf
