This Air I Choke Upon

No.
I Will Not Relent To Your Bitter-Sweet Words.
Never Live With Loss.
Never Live With Fault.
Survive The Best I Can.
Yeah, I Think I'll Do That.

I'm No Mortal Man,
Flaws Big Enough For Anyone To See.
I'm Broken,
As You Can Easily See.
Yet Hear Me Falter These Words To You.

I've Suffered Through It All.
Pain, Heartbreak, Defeat, Agony.
You Name It, I've Had It.
But That Won't Stop Me.
No.

With This Air I Choke Upon,
I Still Push To The Edge.
I Cement My Beliefs
In A Stone For Everyone To Read.

" Remember The Taste Of My Tongue After I've Taken A Life.
Place It Between Your Lips And Bite Down.
Let The Bitter, Bloody, And Cold Taste Run Into Your Mouth.
This Will Be Your Last Taste Of Me "

    I found the words "relent" and "falter" to be forced and a little jarring.

    Hmmm ... Nice ...

    Very interesting ... I liked the last part.
    I know a little graphic but gets the point across. I also noticed the part about cementing your beliefs in stone for everyone to read ... if went together with the part about taking a life ... sorta like a epitaph (ok I have no idea how to spell that). Dark and metaphor laced I liked it! good writing!
