Analysis of A poem about a character played by Timothée but not really
Sean-Tay Williams 1994 (Spanish Town)
Beautiful boy, I wish I could save you
for all your broken pieces, I wish I could mend you
that ache that lingers in your chest
the silent cries that burn your throat
I wish I could embrace you
I wish I could fix all the cracks that plague you Beautiful boy, for all the sorrow you knew, I wish I could save you
