Mighty Kong

He protected her from all the dinosaurs
Gave her the safety no one ever gave 
They shot him, hunted him 
With not even a consider
That she loved him, thanked him 
Saw the most beautiful scene 
No human ever saw
She rested in his paw 
But you took her 
Teared the love, the protection, the safety 
Caused the beast of the jungle 
To become a prisoner 
Prisoner of you, of your tries to rescue her
Though she was alright
The beast remained mad, angry of your existence
Of your crime 
When you rescued her 
Mighty Kong came running after you 
The guns were held, the chloroform was aimed
As soon as he came, countless ropes hunted him
Thousands bottles chloroformed his body
His eyes, his movements, his heart…
The protector’s end got him guilty 
Guilty of a crime not done, not faced, not planned 
Her voice called and cried out loud: STOP!
No replies or answers or even realization
The beast became the good 
And they became the beast 
Because of hunting, because of taking lives
Because of taking his freedom 
As soon as their ship sealed to a city 
Whose lights never slept? 
New York the shows were set 
The laughs were made on the protector
Chained, bleeding agony, sight needing only her
The girl that he saved 
As more laughs began and endless ridicules was made
The beast started to destroy the city
The city that got him to no peace
Because of greed, blood is spilled
Because of love, sacrifice is born
Because all this
Mighty Kong went searching and at last found
But not had enough time to enjoy 
Carried her to the tallest building in the whole town 
The most beautiful sunset was set
And the planes came shooting him from above
From behind, everywhere
And he had nothing but to protect her again 
From the spiteful human raise 
Finally the planes got their desire 
And he fell
Looking into her eyes
It is not the planes that took him down 
It is beauty that killed the beast…
