Why are you scared?
Just because they deserve to die?
They deserve to die
Why are you crying?
Just because I killed our parents?
They deserved to die
Why are you screaming?
Just because I killed our siblings?
They deserved to die
Why are you running?
Just because I'm about to kill you?
You deserve to die
Why am I sad?
Just because I'm about to kill myself?
I deserve to die

PLEASE DO NOT THINK I AM THINKING ABOUT KILLING MY FAMILY!!! I simply wrote this from the POV of a serial killer.

oh my goodness! this is superb. I love the stark simplicity of your poem, your imagery, although limited is clear and well defined, and I think you've done a superb job with this creation! Thanks for sharing this, and taking the time to enter my contest,
Luck.
