A father's desperate attempt to save his son. This poem tells of Iva's father's determination to cure his son, no matter what lengths he must take to do so.
The channels of the illness are a mob of leeches
Cursed this child is to die.
The innocence and placidness lost forever in the sea of the Damned
My conscience won’t allow it.
I must find a Cure.
My mind stretches to all knowledge perceptible
Still I find nothing.
But I can’t give up
My conscience won’t allow it.
I must find a Cure.
The synthetic hounds of Hell present a small endowment
A sole hope in a river of despair.
Or is it just another vex within my misery?
My conscience won’t allow it.
I must find a Cure.
I have grasped a remedial concentrate to heal these wounds
Both his and mine.
Though taken at intervals, the rose still flourishes.
Swinging by the sun and the moon.
I study the sickness planning my next attack
Often returning to the red monsters for assistance.
And though I have yet to unearth luck
I strive to keep us both alive.
This child cannot die.
My conscience won’t allow it.
I will find a Cure.
