Let me out

Let me out

A Story by Douglas Levi Gribbins
"

Basically, this is everything off the top of my head.

"

My inner soul deepens and slowly feeds itself to the darkness.

My eyes go blind, my ears invent sounds to drive me heartless.

My conscience causes losses in concentration, The mask of Jason

Lays on my face and, i'm prepared to lace her face up

I've learned to face it that the race is a waste of time

This is a waste of rhymes, as All my poetry is a waste of lines.

Just like my chainsaw and blades, all make a waste of lives.

I'd have a belt of watches, but that'd be a waist of time.

Don't tell me lies, girl, you have less to no disguise.

You scream as the knife goes slowly past your thighs.

This is what i write, like i write while i'm sleeping.

I'm off the deep end, keeping a pace, slashing, beating.

My past record, i wreck her face with a wrecking ball

But i don't come in like one at all, i come in like a devil

I'm on a new level, i climb to, There's no way i can settle.

The evil man your mom warned you about, i told you not to shout

I'm out of this world, in hell, Waiting to be dragged out.

Before i'm out of time, all i wanna say.

Is goodnight, and have a darker day.

First of all, I really liked your bit about waste of lines, and then waste of time becoming a waist of time; it is surprisingly witty. All in all, a good bit of dark poetry with some good wordplay hiding throughout.

Only recommendations from me would be...
I would drop the first 'itself' from the first line
As for the second line, I would personally use a different word than "Make up", perhaps invent, envision, or even twist or contort (even though these don't have the same meaning, they still seem like a fun thing to use)

I don't know how I missed your poetry before but this is more than poetry. This is a story and you can feel it crying, dying for help. The painful screams you hear so clearly in this makes you have to just stop for a moment and continue reading. Beautiful words you use.
