Summary: A little piece of advice Qui-Gon might have given
Anakin
Run, run away and never return
Child, we are here to learn
of hardhsip, and pain, and losses unpaid
Run, run away Child, ere it is too late
for regret, for second thoughts, for another chance
There sleep corpses unnumbered beneath these deserted lands
Cry, cry in vain Child, tears unshed and untold
Pain comes with a vengeance, have you never been told
that we die not, we age not, but forever and a day
die, so Child, now run, run away
Run to a land where they don't know your name
where there are no warriors, and no one to blame
for this lesson we've taught you, of death and decay
before you ran, you ran, before you ran away
-end-
