| elegy for a negative creep |  |
| the
lights are out is it less dangerous surely you have not come about in realizing what you did was monstrous
|
| you
wrote off lines that made no sense did you love yourself more than any one else the world around us was not nonsense besides, 27 made no difference to anyone else
|
| people
did not tell you what you wanted to hear they did not mean to stare and what is wrong with never knowing fear you seemed to say you did not care
|
| the
world will remember greasy blond hair to your true fans, your death did not come easy your music was nothing like sid's rebellious air it was an exciting aneurysm; it was so pretty
|
| you'd
finally found your heroine but she also had a favourite inside source it was your choice to use it as medicine this parasite was using you as a test course

you really need some help not for once you were a negative creep to me i never realized till it was about to melt that your life was far from being glee
|
| if,
for you, burning out was truly better than fading away then my anger has blacked out and my peace with you will come back each day
|
| was
it truly time to make all unclear truth was covered in security everything is so hard to bear thanks for your peace, love and empathy
|
| you
touched so many and so far you tried to heal and feel the world you were right that we should come as we are rest in peace kurt cobain

This poem was written by someone very close to me for an English course about two weeks after the death of Kurt Cobain. If you were like him, and me, then you were shocked and angry. You didn't really want to care, but you definitely considered it to be a loss to the whole planet. Well, the planet has survived, and for some reason, so has this poem. |
