She

Hear it..

Hear the pain..

Inflicted..

 

Feel it..

Feel the terror..

Instilled..

 

The dogs that still walk on greener pastures..

In the outskirts of my fractured head..

My scattered and scarred psyche..

 

They get darker and turn to wolves around me..

It will always end in blood..

 

If ever there was any truth to find..

Shouldn’t I have seen it?..

Felt it?..

 

Felt anything was true..

Seen everything coming?..

 

Evidently I never did feel for any of the sorry fuckers who gathered around me..

But in reality that was the grand trick..

The magicians final words..

Never show..

 

It cracked and crumbled at the marveled sight of seeing them all betray..

Every single action..

Every word..

Every f*****g try..

Seeing them betray..

Me.

 

I can’t feel..

I can’t think..

I can’t even f*****g die when I’m supposed to..

 

Flick the switch..

Let the electricity that I rightly deserve course through me..

 

Bury me in blue and color my tombstone orange..

Give me all that you have left for me..

 

Let thy love creep through thy mind..

 

The lily will never wither..

Not like me..

 

Not like any of us..

 

She is all..

She is..

She.

Give it to me.

I think you meant "flip the switch" instead of "flick the switch". Just one observation.

Did I get this right? This is a piece about a boy who is obsessing over a girl? But he seems to be wanting to die.

"Why can't I die when I'm supposed to?"

Which is very dark, and I wonder... does he want to die because of the girl or other reasons. Perhaps the girl image should come up sooner in the poem and describe precisely why the narrator is feeling that he must die. Perhaps he must die because he can't be with her, or die because he is with her and hates being with her.

It's pretty much up to you to decide the message. You're almost right though.
Yeah I meant flip, and I put her in last because in my mind the She should hit last.

Very strong poetry. I like the emotion and the thoughts. Good to read your words again. I hope you are doing well. A perfect ending to the excellent poetry.
