More of my story poem
In a place he did not know, the birds sang out.
Where Albert lay still, clear amongst the reeds.
Hurling the thoughts in his head as they moved on about.
Mind the small human as one amongst the seeds.
On the side of a lake that tranquil waves cross.
A man of wonder moved and crossed his path.
"Here you go Albert from where I did toss,
From the starry heavens into this earthy strath.
You cannot speak now as you cry little babe.
But your situation is not as bad as it seems.
And you will do as I speak, by my right you are swayed.
From eternity in bliss to a life of unheard screams.
So really, you haven't changed much from before.
I couldn't carry on your age since you died.
And time, one will you found here on the shore.
I cannot help you in this world you now reside.
Now I want you... To remember what it is you had lost.
And liven your spirits for this is not the end.
For my purpose you live on, this life your resource.
Though you will probably fail and descend."
Albert listened to the words with protest then so still.
As the dawn of understanding met closely his eyes.
The wetness of his cheeks, the sadness so fill,
And unwillingness to accept this man and his lies.
But like the wind on the hills, he disappeared into nothingness
"I am Loki." he spoke though this name helped none,
but a passing thought right now, a thought before loneliness.
Albert waited as his body cried out for someone.
Anyone to hear, to care and to hold.
With grateful irony he thought his new life.
His needs unmet now, the same as his old.
And the slickness of pain he would derive
"Brian and Kate. Where were you today?"
The old Albert had asked knowing the answer.
Without him, is where they had gone to stay.
As Albert was left all alone in that manner.
"We were hanging out. What on earth are you doing?"
The emptiness in Albert grew at what he had heard.
The woman he loved and the times he spent cooing,
And his best friend still along with her words.
"I was hoping to hang out. I had another fight today.
My father and I will no longer talk.
The path he is on and mine long since fray.
We no longer by each other will walk.
I'll be around but not so much.
Consider my time with you here has been taken.
And without parents, I will be alone as such.
And I am still a little worried and quite shaken."
Albert felt the hug of his friend, the warmness in her arms.
And the hug of a man he began to hate.
The times of this abandonment played as alarms.
And he recalled the pain in this dream his cruel fate.
Albert did not want to relive his memories true.
Even in the afterlife they cut into his heart, so deep.
And just one of these felt, but many more will too.
Of the void carried on inside him to keep.
His eyes moved through the tall canopy,
Of vibrant evergreens on the near slope.
To Albert held a cruel inanity.
Of boring trees he could watch to cope.
Where Albert lay still, clear amongst the reeds.
Hurling the thoughts in his head as they moved on about.
Mind the small human as one amongst the seeds.
On the side of a lake that tranquil waves cross.
A man of wonder moved and crossed his path.
