HOMICIDE

I SIT CONTENT

AS SHE REITERATES

ALL THAT I WAS

AND IRONICALLY

SHE REMAINS ANONYMOUS

SILENT AND VAIN

AS THOUGH

THE PARTY ON MY END

RESTRICTS THE PAIN

CONSTANT THOUGHTS OF

WHAT COULD'VE BEEN TOLD

AND THE WORDS SHE LEFT ME WITH

WHO KNOWS WHAT THE FUTURE HOLDS

AND THE THOUGHTS OF

DISRELISHING HER CROSSES MY MIND

AS THOUGH HOMICIDE FOLLOWS

AND I THEN REMEMBER

IT WAS HOMICIDE TO MY HEART

THAT SHE INQUIRED

SO I REMAIN SUBTLE

WHEN SWALLOWING THE THOUGHT OF

GIVING HER THE SATISFACTORY

OF SEEING ME DOWN

FRANKENSTEIN LAUGHS

AS SHE GRASP FOR BREATHE

AS I REMINDED HER THAT

I WAS HER DEATH

AND THAT REMAINING SANE

IS WHAT KEPT ME IN TACT

SO NOW I REST

WHERE HER SOUL USED TO PLAY

AND THE PLACE I PUT MYSELF

IS NOW WHERE I STAY

CONTENTLY REMINDING HER

THAT I'LL COMMIT

HOMICIDE ANYDAY

Wow, that's a strong and intense poem. I liked it. You weren't really saying you were going to kill her (hee hee) although I know we have all wanted to do that to someone in our lifetime....

"AND I THEN REMEMBER

IT WAS HOMICIDE TO MY HEART

THAT SHE INQUIRED

SO I REMAIN SUBTLE:

(in a way when we hate someone, so much, it actually kills us in the proces, slowly eats away with at us little by little. so it's better to let it go. that's what i felt your poem was saying, i could be wrong, but it was well written. thanks.)

I like... Homicide would be a good title.

I like the "homicide to my heart" line. Definitely different. Keep it up.
