hide - the poem by ~hiido:iconhiido:

Categories Literature > Poetry > Human Nature > Open


I couldn’t die like that,
the peak of fame
long nights wandering in the artificial
fireflies of urban traffic
the smoke still lingering
in our hair.

I couldn’t die like that,
girls like hungry vultures
biting, scratching, clawing
eager to taste more than
an innocent voice and
calloused hands
a smile still smelling
like the Jack Daniels from’
the night before.

I couldn’t die like that,
a windowless room you made your home
strung up, strung out, bent
like waiting for a shower in the morning
despair, for we’ll never know your heart
where a life lost adds up to four
leaving the rest of us
behind.

Author's Comments

I just found this while cleaning my desk, written on lined paper during school last year.

I thought it was so good (especially the last 3 lines), that I decided to share it with you.

...
and yes, hide as in the dead hide. RIP, babes. :heart:

That's great. I once made a giant cardboard poster drawing of hide with the poem that was written at his funeral. I like yours better than that one, by far. My eyes love you, "hide - the poem" by ~hiido!

On a technical standpoint, there's so much of his personality in there, and pieces of info that I was glad I remembered from the press clippings. Very well put together!

Yes, hide did in fact hang himself. Wether an accident or not, no one really knows.

D'aww! Better than the poem read at his funeral, ey?! I am indeed very flattered!

Yes, I tried to include little things about him and Japan in there as well. Would only make sense, mm? An angsty poem about how much I missed him wouldn't be any fun. ;] Thanks for the favorite and the lovely comment!
