All for nothing
Don’t stay beautiful
when the world wants to thank you for the venom
you spat upon its feet
You’re a kick in the head
the end of the world embodied
in the spirit of someday
and guaranteed, I’ll be the last to know
Don’t come for me
and I won’t come for you
all our promises will mean nothing
when we’re dead

In the first stanza, is the 2nd line supposed to be that long? I just wondered in terms of flow if it might be better to separate this lines to match the other 4 line stanzas. JMHO of course.
I like the sinister use of the word 'we're dead' in the last stanza. This goes from an introspective piece to something far more aggressive. Good progression here.
Thank you for the read.

the anger pours out
and I think it's great,
and I personally love
the use of lines of
uneven length, it's
like not stopping to
take a breath, which
when you're angry
why would you...

Even if a subject is over my head emotion is always present in Your Writes-quite relatable that.
I'm not a fan of copy and paste comments...seems a cop out...but well sometimes its just needed...
You’re a kick in the head
the end of the world embodied
in the spirit of someday
and guaranteed, I’ll be the last to know
One thing that drew me to Your Writes from the get go is Your use of rhythms and wit...
Kick-ass moment right there Indie!!!
