Dark Works (Poetry)

Me

You're out of time to decide

To stand beside

Me.

Of all people

Me

You left

Me

To the theft

Committed by a ghost

Of you.

All I had

Was that ghost;

Who left me

In the sands of time.

Tick tock

Tick tock

The hands grind

Against apathetic walls;

Occasionally screaming.

You're running out

Of time, of everything.

No more time

To decide.

Decide

To decide

Can't decide.

Won't decide.

Trapped.

In what?

Darkness.

To little time,

Can't do anything.

Tears will stream

Down my bloody face

While I stare

At pictures of you.

I'll cut them up soon.

Because you are out of time.

Time.

Time.

Time time time...

Out of it.

Time time time...

Never repeats.

Time time time...

Drives the best insane.

Time time time...

Kills a man.

Time time time...

And never rhyming.

Until now.

Here's the show.

Line up! Ladies and gentlemen.

Your minds will blow,

And you'll quit breathin'.

Do I seem out of line?

Do you think I care?

Do I really hear you whine?

Not really~. What more can I share?

I hate my life

And most my family.

I'm in love with a knife;

'Cuz no one's really there for me.

Wish my father got offed;

my mom's practically heartless.

Always being scoffed

But I get through, nontheless.

I'm basically a failure,

Constantly cutting my wrist.

Lived my life in a trailer,

Tormented and pissed

Off by the ghosts

That live in my head.

Fake smiles; terrible hosts;

Under my sleeves, my arms are red.

Cut cut cut cut.

This is my mind.

I wished to shut

out everything one could find.

Cut, don't cry, don't shout.

Tears make you weak

But what doesn't kill you,

Makes you stronger, right?

Black out, lights out.

Hundreds filled the spaces

My arm looked so bland before.

Scars take up those places

Along with the memories. Sorry for...

You.

I don't remember.

And don't want to.

Fuck every last member;

What does a REAL family do?

What is love?

Fuck that shit!

"A feeling from above."

Even HE quit

Bothering to see

This failure.

Raised in a trailer.

Cutting for relief.

Living with no belief.

Angsty

And as pissed as on can be

At this shitty town.

In tears, she wished she'd drown.

That the ground

Would swallow her.

No words, no sound.

"Nothing is forever."

That is my only

Reality.

So go ahead.

Put a bullet in my head.

"Tell 'em somethin' they don't know about me."
