Notes: This was a hard poem to write because Antonio goes through so much. I feel bad for the guy I really do which is why I'll make it up to him in time, but until then enjoy the poem. Enjoy!

I’m asked to write a poem about how I feel

As if that will clean the failure from my hand

My advisor, my friend my kingdom did he steal

My home, my life a place where I am banned

Every day, every night having to fight for a meal

A risk of punishment where I stand

My wife, my son, my daughter who’s fate I sealed

My blood, my tears, my failure dirty the land

The sky my wings long to peal

One day my smile will not be bland

One day my soul will feel real

Until that time arrives

I will continue to write how I feel

Man, poor guy. He clearly went through a LOT and I feel really bad for him.

The bad thing is this is after he's settled in the hospital. :(

I feel good that you feel for him and bad that this takes place once he's set up with his recovery process.

I promise to be good to him soon.

Thank you!
