It come from his heart,
Blood from his hand,
Red velvet crimson, thin,
His body made of glass,
So fragile and led astray,
So damaged with eyes unable to see
Reflected time… his life,
Fading away.
Amon-Re sang this weary song of love
The last time, the melody is lost,
Lyrics were forgotten, heartbroken,
Boundaries were crossed, betrayed.
He lay dying there upon the red
Torn between wrong and right,
Every dream he ever had, broken
When he ended his life for love,
One night.
Goodnight, my weary king,
Rest now, your journey has ended.

It just poured out in minutes. Glad you like it. I think Amon-Re would have liked the attention.

Yeah he would have, though he might not have felt worthy of it. He was a little self deprecating. Self defacating for that matter, to be crude lol. And I did, I love it.

This is so humbling that someone would write these lyrics as a tribute to a character I wrote. Beautiful lyrics she says are to be sung to the tune of “Twinkle Twinkle Little Star” I’m dumbfounded by this compliment. Thank you so much, this is awesome!

He is a miracle to have survived so long. He was a victim, poor baby.
