Fuck off dirt bags.
People are so vile
To them all I have to say is
Fuck off dirt bags
That’s all you really are in this life
Little people with little minds
Little worthless hearts
Little pea brains
So I say fuck off dirt bags
There is no more room for me
I didn’t want to say goodbye
But I couldn’t resist this last chance
To have a word of my own
I lived well while I did
I wasn’t afraid to tell you all
Just how I felt about you dirt bags
My life what can I say I lived it
I didn’t hold myself back
On the account of others
I achieved all that I came here to do
And a little more
And I am ready to move on
So let me go ya ass holes
And fuck off to all those dirt bags out there.

||You Don't Have To Be||
I'm sorry for swallowing my soul
So I could help you become whole
I know you're hurt that I hid me
But to me, it was worth it for you to see
That you're more than the world
You're more than just some girl
All I needed was for you to smile
To stop drinking up his vile
All I needed was for you to be happy
That was all that was necessary
So don't be sad as I pass away
I've always been prepared for this day
I didn't tell you that I was sad
I didn't want you to be mad
Or waste the effort on me
When you were dealing with your own self esteem
So smile for me darling, pretend
Pretend that there is no end
To your life, your happiness, your heart
Because I've loved you from the start
That day you picked me up on my own
You already had me, I wish you'd known
Just how much you mean to the world
Because you don't have to be just some girl
You can be everything you meant to me
That's my last request

"Last Supper"
I'm hungry, so hungry for one last taste of you
Remember me tomorrow, remember me if it's the last thing you do
Don't forget to look for me when you follow me down to Hell
I'll be there waiting to protect you behind the bars of my cell
A lifetime of sinning bought me a room with a fiery view
But what the Hell, it's a crib with a bed built for two
So remember me, remember my scent, it'll guide you to me
We will never be free but we can burn together for eternity
Don't forget how delicious I taste or the look on my face
Knowing this flesh and blood supper was my last fall from grace
(JJ Johnson)

I wrote one last night which would fit as my last poem. assuming the poem doesn't require to not already have been posted.
FEAR
Feeling my age more as time goes by.
Every creaking bone and twinge.
Age is just a number, they say.
Remembrance is immortality.

"With dying breaths"
You carry me home
as the devil drags at my limbs
take me home again
lights are dimming out
and life has won
my soul is tatter air
my voice is cracks in infinite ice
my heart is a stone
plastic people have faked me
all these lies raped me
beat me down and now I crawl
shunt me emptiness
failure of fear
i hold this dear
loveless i die
alone for now
and i'll never ever know why
brace me entice
brake me with advise
call me dead call me alive
call me strength i am weak
my heart is shallow
my breath is short
so long goodnight
so long goodbye....

Anxiety's Quiet Malignancy
Blood to my fist,
Constricts through my wrist,
Gets drawn swiftly back,
To race and attack,
To reach to my brain,
To make the insane,
Thoughts that I feel,
That engulf me and steal,
My true inner peace,
From me to decrease,
Control of my life,
So I reach for the knife,
To bleed this chaos,
For my freedom I've lost,
From this cage of my fear,
That has made life unclear,
But I put down the blade,
'Cos although I'm afraid,
I trust that in time,
I'll see where I've climbed,
And look to the past,
That has passed far too fast,
And I'll sigh with relief that I'm free at long last

Fuck it
Ladies and Gentlemen,
Time to Stop Being So God damn Ignorant,
Stop Worrying About the Little Things and Cherish them,
Fuck Other People's Opinions,
Fuck The Name Calling,
Some People Just Don't Know how to grow up,
Just Act Like you don't give a Fuck,
You May die Today, Or Even Tomorrow,
So Its time to Stop The Sorrows,
Stop the Heart Break,
and Cherish The Time You have Left to Actually Feel,
Ladies and Gentlemen,
Time to Stop Whining,
Life's a Bitch, It is to Everyone,
Time to Suck it up and Cherish,
so Fuck Their Opinions, and Cherish The Time You have Left.

Black Feather Bed
Unkindness, murder, and the unforeseen demons
followed you home, now you can’t rest your head.
So you go counting crows,
for the sheep wont quit screaming,
and you toss and you turn
on a black feather bed.
Quote “never more!” as you answer a calling.
Quick, you rushed in where the angels wont tread.
Outside, they take five
with the swans by the water,
before they keep watch
by your black feather bed.
Try dreaming of masque, synagogue and cathedral
unified by the words every madman has said.
Eating death from the streets,
all those birds sing together
and keep you awake
on a black feather bed.
What can be seen from unkindness, and murder?
More blind side events that will showcase the dead?
Do you believe we'll rise up
while collecting the down
that goes into each, all
of our black feather beds?
So go counting crows
now the sheep wont quit screaming...

Humbled by words put to page
In mind I rage
Unlocked
Now uncaged am I
now changed can I
Humble others with words
For now and forever my pen will be
Mightier than swords
Yet never meant to harm or kill
Only to in thought as you read them
Keep you still
Paralized by thoughts racing as I type
Hope everyone who reads this takes it
With a bittersweet bite
Because ive found a place to put the words
That have so long been trapped in me
For others to see
But for now the clock has struck at
Am 1:23
Have college in the morning but
I have a lust to let these words seen
And as these verses may seem like curses
I feel they have never plauged me
Now as there finally set free
In mind I rage
Unlocked
Now uncaged am I
now changed can I
Humble others with words
For now and forever my pen will be
Mightier than swords
Yet never meant to harm or kill
Only to in thought as you read them
Keep you still
Paralized by thoughts racing as I type
Hope everyone who reads this takes it
With a bittersweet bite
Because ive found a place to put the words
That have so long been trapped in me
For others to see
But for now the clock has struck at
Am 1:23
Have college in the morning but
I have a lust to let these words seen
And as these verses may seem like curses
I feel they have never plauged me
Now as there finally set free
