Unmark My Grave

night dark halloween horror

I don’t want a broken heart any more
take this blood that flows my veins
the air that fills my lungs
the laughter that made a smile
a soul that was never mine
life that I never asked for
God damn strike me down
Take me back
bury my existence
in an unmarked grave

    1. Thanks for this. You’re right. Failed attempt chased me down a dark corridor yesterday. The poem was a result. Appreciate the support as always and Nah..just the words that flew out. Thanks for catching that though.
