Kill Me

By Jenni

i found this the other night, so i thought i would post it.


I want you to kill me,
Bury me in the ground.
Shh.. don’t tell anyone,
No one will notice I’m not around.

You can get away with it,
No one cares for me.
Bury me in a shallow grave,
Just close your eyes, you’ll see.

I want you to kill me,
Make sure no one sees.
Don’t want you to get in trouble,
Over something petty like me.

You can get away with it,
I’ll write a note in case.
Careful while you’re killing me,
Don’t want blood on your pretty face.

I want you to kill me,
Make it long if you like.
Or you can make it short,
Cut my throat with a knife.

You can get away with it,
Don’t let guilt get to you.
Don’t see why you’d feel it though,
I’m not someone you knew.

I want you to kill me,
Get me away from here.
I’m not something you want,
You’re not something I fear.

You can get away with it,
As I said, no one cares.
Leave me for the animals
To eat up, rip, and tare.

I want you to kill me,
Please, just be a dear.
When you stab me in the heart,
Pay no attention to the tears.

Now I finally have it,
This long anticipated death.
My life is slipping through my fingers…
Is this truly what I want?
I guess it’s to late to change my mind…
All is done.

    I agree with ardnek about the ending, simply because the rest of the poem flows so well. I like it a lot!!
