Murder! Murder!

Murder! Murder!

A Poem by Tree Bark
"

gasp :O

"

Why I did it? I can’t begin to explain to you

If you knew me as a person you’d never think it were true

The knife on the side, the knife in my palm

Regretting my action when I was calm

Murder! Murder! No life on my own

I walk amongst the dead alone

Here in my own home I look around

Only the ghosts to make a sound

And as I walk a mournful tread

Everyone I loved lay cold and dead

My family does not answer, their bodies pale and still

My friends don’t feel my touch, they’ve no pulse they’ve no will

I’m the reason they bleed, the reason I cry

In disbelief that I stood there watching them die

A voice in my head tells me I can’t hide

In a pool of their blood, the knife cast aside

It’s all been bottled up inside me

I guess it’s something they said that made them truly see

And now they’ll never see me for real

They’re mortal form I needed to steal

As I wonder around hearing the rain above

It makes me think that I could never love

Walking the streets blood drips from my hair

This giving the people more than a scare

An ear-splitting scream the body of a dead man

Maybe this was all apart of my plan

A lightning crash and nowhere to run

The crime is committed, the murder is done

And here they are to take me away

Without a trial needed or a word or my say

They take me away and here I will rot

My punishment worst than what they got

In a cell I sit living with what I did

The keys to my release they’re well and truly rid

Murder! Murder! The screams in my head

No-one ever returns from the dead

And it doesn’t matter how much you pray

Nothing will change what I did today
