Third Requiem--Tyler




Of emotion and primitivity, a deliberate diadem

In my mind, I ponder, reflect, and scry

But I will speak no requiem


Youth and friendship guide him

An instance in which he may try

Of emotion and primitivity, a deliberate diadem


Pride and adventure propel him 

And a failure makes him cry 

But I will speak no requiem


I love and envy, inspired by them

Though mistakes are made, sparks fly

Of emotion and primitivity, a deliberate diadem


I love and struggle, unsure at the stem 

Damaged now, unfamiliar to reality, and lie

But I will speak no requiem


Pride and passion and love and envy were him 

After all these people, with what now do I lie.

Of emotion and primitivity, a deliberate diadem 

But I will speak no requiem
