ForgivenA Poem by R.J Calzonetti (SinisterPotatoe)Forgiveness can save people from pain. But not everything is meant to be forgiven.I’ll kill myself before anyone else can lift a finger Thoughts of my pain still linger, but I’ll be the bringer of my own demise This world runs on a fresh supply of blood Corpses, dead and buried, have been betrayed in the mud you grow your berries from You b******s won’t kill me because that’s already been done You won’t kill my family, those I’m close with, the people I know, because they're already dead my friend I’m a true shadow of my life’s battle, I’ve bleeding out and I can’t hold the reins of this horse right I’ve babbled with the gunmen to try and stay in the saddle And not under the hoofs of haters who want me slaughtered like cattle So try end my misery if you wish, try to take me down too Because a torture-filled future looks infinitely blue I frown on your s****y methods, it’s really pathetic acting like you can hurt a man that’s lost it all Remember it, the feeling I gave you when you looked into my eyes I’ll have my eyes at your back from beyond the grave, behind the blaze of bodies you left behind And in the haze, you’ll have to deal with this unforgiving soul of mine That’s the aura of feeling I give to those I despise Just as soon as the sun will rise tomorrow, I’ll be the one who dies to end their sorrow The ones you left nothing Cutting through your lies like French fries I’m Zorro Even if your fibs are truths in their eyes, I’d rather be blind than have to see s**t your way And the sorrow is going to end tomorrow, that’s what I told them, I was wrong But I’ll borrow a better world for all the people I lost if tomorrow never comes Cracked out my rhymes and lines from behind the angry, grinding, mechanical gears in my mind I’m still too blind, too kind to give up People remind me to shut up, but if I don’t say anything I’ll be silently crushed No choice but to be rushed to my death or a happy ever after, another breath or my last disaster I’m too stupid, too desensitized from the scars of your past lies to say enough is enough, so give it to me rough, I can handle any of your snuff it’s no different than the people before you Even if I have to throw up all the s**t I had to swallow to protect them, the ones you hurt I will force you to respect them, I will never desert them I was laughed at behind my back for being too weak to protect those I risked everything for, so I make sure to show spine Forced to become hard as bone my hearts a stone that will never be yours to own Happiness was once mine I had a family, friends, a good reputation, intelligence, talent, good health, and a good life Now that’s gone But while people whine about their problems I only live to fix mine I decline to be defeated by the people who assaulted and beated the only ones who treated me with respect They pleaded for humanity, you gave them insanity, laced with profanity, it didn’t have to be like that You made it that way I know you’re mad but you better stay seated because bigoted b******s like you might as well stay plastered in the pastures you razed to the ground Eat it, the homegrown fact that you’re only hungry because you killed the farmers who gave you animals a helping hand These grasses were meant to be shared by people that cared for each other, the way things faired continually makes me shudder I wonder if you selfish asses ever wondered what would happen if someone opposed you and admitted they weren’t meant to be owned by you I loaned myself to a better world and you destroyed it, now I have no purpose S**t I’m tired of being stoned by you, thrown into dungeons where you do your sick experiments and thrill your dicks when you jack off to torture I’m sick of it even if you’re sure it’s ok So no more killing those poor souls and when I think of the bodies and gore it’s too much and my heads sore and my conscience and ability to fear, stop the anger or feel happy isn’t there anymore You made me less than human, changed me into a monster, a machine But somehow I'll still redeem myself by helping the ones you broke Afterwards, I can finally burn up in the fires of your hate, die, and go up in smoke And people can joke about how it took just one bullet to make me cry, put me down to size But when you put yourselves above others, like you deserve every little prize, I’m not sure you can even realize you’re alive I used to like you before the pain of your prejudice hit me like a train drove me out of my lane, made an accident out of my brain, smashed my skull in driving me insane while you were to blame, maiming the ones praying for you in the backseat I’m an agnostic, but I still know gods would not want this to be true, my fellow man Zooming in on every little mistake breaking me slowly for hate and reasons so fake that I don’t know why you stake everything on destroying someone who would have done that to himself I see old me putting his past thoughts up on the shelf and when things go south you won’t hear complaints from his mouth because that man is dead. I don’t stand tall so I can’t reach what could have been, with what I’ve been given I feel I’ll never win I’ll eventually be broken in by time and the idea that this is ok, that everything said about someone must be true, that you don’t have to get to know a person to truly know them But if you want to go and care about my opinion, I never hurt anyone, but that doesn’t matter to people, they will believe what fits their beliefs The last thing I want is for you to flaunt your gauntlet of bullshit lies swatting people I loved like flies there are tears in my eyes but I can no longer cry because the time for weakness is over For people who talk, the truth is never enough I don’t want to be crushed like a four leaf clover all over again, but I’m all out of luck Don’t know why you didn’t just pass me by and leave me be, but I’m not about get fried under the heat of your oppression Let me teach you a lesson if you accepted that human regression into beasts isn’t the best profession You’d gain what you wanted without crushing others If you experienced a tenth of what I had you would have given up and cried You could never handle the perpetual belief in minute time lies that fly by at the speed of many, many mouths And that isn’t even a fraction of what they felt So smelt another weapon to bash the heads in of us insects infesting your house I don’t think people can be forgiven if they haven’t realized that they’ve done something wrong
But the lies will become my reality, and it won’t be long before I am fatally swatted so you can sleep in a home with only humans just like you, and any trace of what is or isn’t fair will be gone © 2017 R.J Calzonetti (SinisterPotatoe)Author's Note
