“The Point Of No Return” (White Collar Season 3 finale)
I was so moved by the season 3 finale of White Collar. It inspired me to write this Neal Caffrey-inspired poem.
What’s gonna happen to Neal now?
“The Point Of No Return” (White Collar Season 3 finale)
Written by: Arvi Marie Dacuba
———————————————————————————————————-
North, west, south and east
Escape is inevitable, hardwired from psych’s beast
An allure to run away
Living in the clouds, fantasy’s come what may
———————————————————————————————————-
Going away means never coming back
Eternal goodbye to the land that keeps him on track
Over are those late night hours of catching darkness
Rest in desolation, leaving the past a burning sadness
Given the choice would stay behind?
Even if it cost you a prison of regret intertwined?
———————————————————————————————————-
Checkmate! Or so we all thought
Anklet has been severed; the death of reforming that was sought
Far away from haven, can fulfillment be upheld?
Future is a blur, a dusk of smoke, an empty footprint
Realization hits, no more backdoors for him to sprint
Everything however seems to burn through his mind
Yesterday’s past doesn’t seem too far behind.
