Algernon in the Well

Algernon was in the well, living without knowing anything. Algernon was in the well, Today came, no different from yesterday. I thought it would always be like this. One day, someone came, Reached out to Algernon, And pulled him out of the well. Algernon's world changed, And he understood everything. He accomplished anything with ease. I thought it would always be like this. Algernon realized, Suddenly one day, he realized. What he could do, what he can do, Was decreasing, slowly, gradually. I thought he would go back, I thought it was something that could be reversed. I was sure it would be like that. The person who took him out of the well, Went somewhere and isn't coming back. Never coming back here again. Algernon can't go back. Like an egg dropped from a wall, He can never go back to how it was. Algernon is not here. Neither outside the well nor inside it. Algernon is no longer here. Behind the bakery no one knows, In a corner of a small garden, A small grave no one knows. With no one to bring flowers...
