ReActivate

I can hear the church bells in the distance

Another death in this town

Feels like they’re dying off without resistance

And like a king falling without his crown

 

But f**k that

I don’t

See the point

Of giving a f**k

 

Sadly I want

To punch everyone

In the dick

 

Everyone should feel insecure

Alone on the bow of the ship

More than they ever were

Leaving them vulnerable for my whip

 

And I don’t want to beg your pardon

 

 

So here I am!

All alone

 

 

“Darling I'll grow weary, happy still
with just the memory of your face”

 

To think some

Still see me as the

F*****g hero of this tale

 

 

I AM NO HERO!

I NEVER F*****G WAS!!!

 

And as the chords

Of the bard dies

Out over the fire

 

I start thinking

I light a cig to calm the nerves

Seems like it’s time to let go

I exhale

Seems like everything

Here keeps bringing

Me down again

 

So I’ll scream for

More suffering to

Come my way

Just so you won’t

Have to face it

 

Just please reactivate

All the feelings I’ve lost

Would be nice if we could reactivate the feelings we have lost. I like the story in the poem. Easy not to have no concern for the world around us. I like the directness and the strong ending. Thank you for sharing the outstanding poem.

Intriguing. I love what you did artistically with the spacing and the message was quite clear! Though 168 views and no reviews is crazy man I don't know what's up with that. Great job!

[Justin Flume]

Thx for reviewing :P
Glad you liked it.

[Namelezz]

you have a thing for writing about kings old friend

[Justin Flume]

To me the idea of kings is just so intresting.

[Namelezz]

Kings have power, yes. They control, they're on top looking down at everyone else. To me I find it scary how any human wants to be like that, to be a 'king'

[Justin Flume]

Kings are never visually vulnerable
