A Poem by Hardcore Charles

Thin desires curse,
I'm afraid that this is my last verse,
tightrope has wrapped around my neck,
I was cheating anyways,
to say the least it was my best,
as the blessed,
condemned for having an odd beat,
they sent me away without a rhyme,
to carry on as a broken down machine,
just to serve the queen.
Now what is home?
Is it a final flame or the cold dirt?
it is the ground on which I give up,
I'll sink into the floorboards, into the queen's cup
as she dismisses the plan, 
I fall together with all those who only forgot,
a simple task,
but they only bask,
in the glory of the kill,
and the breaking of backs,
to rid of any thought,
that may cause them relief.

I move on to double the dosage,
fading away, I place the tombstone where I lay,
a graceful end they all say,
while the reason is in the stone, 
I call Home.

I am 18 years old and I have a lot on my mind. Also any poetry I post does not have to be taken a certain way. Poetry to me is how the reader interprets the words even if the writer had something else.. more..
