King's Def Poetry Jam
Kissing the tattoos on your hips and biting your wrists
Comfortable silence broken by small quips of laughter brought on by an overpowering nervousness
Rebel in denial
With everyone screaming “no”
Stacks of lies tip over and crash to the blood soaked ground
With one-million ways to die and no time to make a decision
Death by overpowering love
Can you imagine this world without you?
Cold, gray, and meaningless
Becomes bright and full of hope
That fateful day will come
Look busy
Little girls play in pools of their own life
Pretty flowers fail in comparison to the drunken woman in the corner
Little bottle full of instant happiness
She’s gone now
Away ruining someone else’s life
Obsessed with the tight female form
Curves dripping in sweat and liquor
Leather bound, whip and beaten
Sharp teeth meet the quivering flesh
And you can’t help but give in to the advance of pain
“Make me bleed, please”
Fighting for a breath of the sweet moist air
Wind and rain slap the windows as the candles slowly burn themselves out
The wrong thing is said and it ends as abrupt as it manifested
Sent out to the unforgiving street
Cigarette smoke fills my lungs making my death a little closer
Wondering in and out of my own mind
Trying to regain my composer and poise
The taste of human flesh still lingers on my breath
And the your smell is tickling at my nose taunting me to return for more
Craving and passion take me over like a cold rush through my veins
Blood, destruction, and love
