Invidious

My Dear Cousin,
I am so terribly sorry that I did not know.
I am so terribly sorry that I wasn't able to be someone you could have talked to about this.
And now our tragic family history has devastatingly repeated itself.
I'm so sorry.
I wrote this poem for you...
For the memories of playing Mario together on the Nintendo.
You will be missed.

-Into the Stars-

Turn not from the dimming of life's light
But spread thine wings through solar strings
And embrace the flickering fainted bright

Those starless voids will pulsate at night
Bending reality in grandiose gravity
To bathe thee in sands of wondrous sights

Reach out and climb those pillar clouds of height
Awash in plumes of sacred runes
Glow gas giants of mysterious might
