The Kill

What if I wanted to fight?
Stand up for what is right?
Question the authority holding us back
And separate the fiction from fact.

I'll beg for the rest of my life
From the tip of the knife.
For all of you who don't give a damn,
This is who I really am.

What would you do
If I told you I knew
All the things you said
Were just lies you were fed?

You say that you wanted more
From behind the mask that you wore.
Come and try to break me down
And let me know what you have found.

So what are you waiting for?
Here I am, lying on the floor
Cold, alone
Feeling as though I've been disowned.

But I'm not running from you
I will let you know that this is true.
I know that this is long overdue,
But all I ever wanted was you.

    Ohkay, you already know that I loveloveLOVEE your writing, but I figured I'd remind you anyway

    This was great!! My friend whom I'm hosting this contest with will adore this [30STM is one of her favorite bands, haha ]

    This flowed smoothly and rhymed beautifully && I loved how you incorporated some of the actual song lyrics in the poem.

    Good luck my friend!! =)
