Our story, though short
was a fun one to begin
I was skeptical at first
but soon head first, jumped in
We were honest and true
our faces freely exposed
Though the past is now clear
I was real, you were posed
Your voice how is shone
the true essence of man
I wasted not a minute
when you offered me your hand
My palace walls, they were high
Man had yet to scale their height
When I saw you from afar
My heart sang with such delight
I was so thrilled to see you coming
I didn't want to hinder your commission
Instead of asking you to climb
I gave you painless admission
My company and my humor
You enjoyed for quite a bit
In observance of your affection
I was sure you would commit
Soon our friendship became a battlefield
I swore I'd win at any cost
But the day your eyes grew dim
I knew for me, this war was lost
You took my hand that day you came
Your laugh erased my impeding doubt
Now with pain I sit and wonder
what your motive was all about
Should I go back and start anew
A new requirement for your commission
Would be to climb my palace walls
Without pain there is no admission
