Stepping Off

Summary:

If I should die, may it be stepping off
into the void casting off all of my
Hope-fear-sin
to the nothing

~*~
Percy thinks on his actions, and then -looking to death- considers how he would like to leave the world he broke.

Notes:

An old poem idea I had nearly a year ago for Percival.

Work Text:

If I should die, may it be stepping off
Into the void, while I loose all my
hopes, fears, and sins to the Same Dark Night.
That my legacy can resign to the peace of a black anonymity.
Forgiving the world of the harm that led me to my falling,
I leave history to be
committed to text
having my mark upon it struck from record.


That the world is
Unbroken by the inventions of my
Mind that I allowed to manifest in blood.
If I should die may the world be rebuilt without my madness there.
I am a hurricane that should soon erode my own epitaph.

 

If I should die, may it be stepping off
into the void casting off all of my
Hope-fear-sin
to the nothing.
