Note: The first half of this poem was lost. The original work, or rather, the second half of the original work, starts with the line "I've beaten you, you lay dormant." I've since tried to recreate the beginning, but it didn't come out as well as the original.

Ah what is this that I feel?

What is this passion, this burning sensation deep within me?

Why are you there, what is your purpose?

Wait, do you even exist?

I must oppress you, I must rid myself of your presence.

My unhappiness is undoubtedly caused by you.

You hold my soul hostage.

No, that's impossible, you don't exist.

No, No, go away!

Leave me, get away from here!

Why do you torment me so?

You! Go! I won't let you have me!

I've beaten you, you lay dormant.

Ah, but I am still unhappy?

What's happening, what's going on?

You, get away! Get away from me!

It's been so long, I don't understand.

You've been gone for so long...

No, you were never away, because you were never here.

You're a lie, you're a nightmare.

No it can't be! You can't be!

You've grown, you say?

I feel...different...you've transcended me.

I've been engulfed, I'm at peace.

Yes, I'm, I'm at peace now...

No, I'm not. I long for something.

For someone, I long for someone.

No, you don't exist...

Oh, my boy, I assure you I do.

Where, where can you be?

Right here, fellow, right here.

Where, I don't understand.

You don't have to. Now go look.

I haven't lost anything, I've no reason to look.

You haven't found anything, young man.

Hmmm, no, I'm not sure what you're saying.

You know who I am, and you know what I mean.

No, You don't exist!

I know.

What?

Look.
