Kill me

Disclaimer I am not suicidal. This is just a dark little rhyme that came to mind and I felt the need to write a full poem for it.

Kill me

Kill me
For I am trash
Cut my throat
And burn me to ash

End my existence
Before I end yours
I’m not just a monster
Wrapped in a coat
I am Armageddon
Fueled by unending persistence

Kill me
For I am trash
Cut my throat
And burn me to ash

There is nothing stopping me
This bat looks mighty nice
And you look like you need a bash

There is nothing good here
Only apocalyptic mutiny

Kill me
For I am trash
Cut my throat
And burn me to ash

You think of me as something positive
But I can’t help but see the monster in me

So I beg of you

Kill me
For I am trash
Cut my throat
And burn me to ash

Before I end it all
Before I end you all
Before I fail again
Before I can’t contain this unrelenting sin

Very strong words, I like how you end this poem addressing the art of poetry. I have a friend who write just the same but because he knew I am a ridiculous thinker he usually explain first b4 sending it to me.

I am glad you shared the disclaimer, David. When you get thoughts like that swirling around in your head it is best to set them free on paper. A very dark poem but well expressed,
