“I fought so you might find yourself again…”

A haunting echo of an old friend

One I had slain

He said his peace,

Greeted death like it was victory

“I never forgot…”

“I never forgot…” anger ensued

“I never forgot!” Rage pulsating

“I never forgot!”

Releasing a primal scream

Before I could let go of him,

I whispered in his ear,

Gasping through tears…

“You taught me to be brave.

And courage brought the inevitable.

For I studied you, your guidance unveiling potential,

I never forgot,

I am and always will be,

The villain in everyone else's story.”
