Failure
What a failure I am,
I can't do what they can.
All I deserve is cold steel,
A blade to cut and a world too real,
The blood is so warm,
When caught in the cold of a storm.
What a failure I've become,
What in the world has begun?
Just shoot me,
I'm already on my knees.
My imperfection,
Is an infection.
It's eating my mind,
It's breaking my spine.
Just end this pain,
I don't want to cry again.
Give me eternal sleep,
You can have this life, it's yours to keep!
What a failure I repeat,
What a failure I re-speak.
I want nothing,
I'm not even a something.
Free me of my sin,
Let me shed my soul of this skin.
My blood is rolling,
My heart is boiling.
What a failure I am.
What a failure...
I can't do what they can.
All I deserve is cold steel,
A blade to cut and a world too real,
The blood is so warm,
When caught in the cold of a storm.
What a failure I've become,
What in the world has begun?
Just shoot me,
I'm already on my knees.
My imperfection,
Is an infection.
It's eating my mind,
It's breaking my spine.
Just end this pain,
I don't want to cry again.
Give me eternal sleep,
You can have this life, it's yours to keep!
What a failure I repeat,
What a failure I re-speak.
I want nothing,
I'm not even a something.
Free me of my sin,
Let me shed my soul of this skin.
My blood is rolling,
My heart is boiling.
What a failure I am.
What a failure...

self loathing and mutilation. It's a shame these types of poems aren't taken very seriously anymore...The feelings behind them are often real...:(

I agree with that, most often they are over looked as the 'normal wah wah story' but sometimes it's really difficult and dark. :(
