Diary of the Mad King

Summary:

Ryan's deepest thoughts before it is too late for him.

Notes:

Angst, angst, angst! This Mad King poem was based on the past stories that built up the universe he lives in. You may want to read the others first, but the summary to everything is mainly in this poem!

(See the end of the work for more notes.)

Work Text:

Dearest inner thoughts

Nobody is around

I call for my servants

Yet never hear a sound


Geoff is going mad

With my cruel orders I have given

I've heard that his best knight Michael

Has found despair that can't be risen


Gavin's blood on my hands

Ray being unreturned

I cannot stand this anymore

All this death that I have earned


Jack is my last true peace

But he is worn, I see

I have been no friend to him

His spirit torn by me


The others have been killed

By the war that I have caused

Oh, can I not just cease time

Have the whole world be paused?


Alas, this was my choice

Although it wasn't sound

The same curse killed my father

Once he put on this wretched crown


Haywood will be no more

Spirit, let my caged bird sing

Maybe it's time to disappear

Long live no Mad King.
