Necklace of oblivion, binds into my throat,
Devil angels smile, while bloodied angels gloat.
Damn you all to hell, damn this life I hate,
feed me rotting carrion, for blessed release I wait.
Burning rope bites waiting flesh, blood weeps in my veins,
hope drowns slow in anguish, my soul entwined in chains.
Let me choke in fetid black , necklace bring my death,
I pray to Satans children, with gasping stangled breath.
Life begins to fade away, eyelids start to close,
death is now inside me, it mocks the life I chose.
I cannot breathe, I cannot hope, Satan catch my sigh,
then burn this wretched body, the moment that I die.

Thank You For Entering
I like this. I got chewed out by the moderator for asking for suicidal poetry but I don't care because this is a great poem. any ways I really love the over all depth and flow through out this poem. your unique methaphorical phrasing really makes this a very attractive poem. I just really like what I read and felt you had a presence in mind to keep this a prettyclean but well darkly penned poem. any ways great work all round and good luck

Yup that's dark! This does hold some pretty gruesome imagery and paints quite the picture in mind's eye. Awesome writing. Best of luck in the contest.
