...Defiance
By SolApathy
The darkness of what I have become
I for so long
told no one
a black abyss so far beyond numb
Striking out in
anger you can’t fathom
unto myself until I detonate
...Expose
a curse on the world you cannot
Imagine
Desperate to end myself
before I explode
Expose my malice to the universe
Blood of innocence
shed without repentance
I am an unstoppable force
Tried so hard
to seek the help I needed to fade
Now it’s too late…
the
abyss has eaten my sanity away
Failed suicide attempts left me betrayed
Driven by those who laughed at my pain…
My darkened eyes, smirking
as I replay
a vision of evil you can’t imagine
a chasm of chaos
in my permafried oblivion
I slice my wrists just so I can taste…
The beauty of copper on my tongue
My pain transformed into a raging
storm
Tell me I’m too young to exact vengeance on this world?
Haven’t the taste for what I’m about to do
Only 14 but I’m
an old soul
ready to retire through fire and agony
I will be
remembered for the cataclysm
I wrought upon this world
Fashioned
and framed
Set in flame to be burned into your soul
The insanity
of the one you didn’t know
…The quiet one no one understood
I bring the flood of fear and death
looking to you, taking your
last breath
remember me?
The one you wouldn’t free?
Hammered
and tortured every day
now who is running away?
screaming and
crying
begging not to be dying
I would be lying if I wasn’t
feeling remorse
yet I stay my course
the only option to cleanse
my pain
I bury my faith and set the universe
….aflame

I have empathy for you. I have felt this, and still do, but it is more balanced out now. An old soul embedded in a young body; again, sounds like what adults say to me. If I or anyone could, we would reap the world of those who enjoy inflicting unwanted pain.
