The Used

It's not me being punished,

It's you.

Your the one who didn't deserve the life,
The life you killed.

I was just the carrier,
The spare rib.
The one who took the blow,
The pain, the guilt.

And really
It's all you.

I don't want you living
But I don't want you dead.
I will see him first,
He's mine to protect.

I don't want you near,

I just want all out

See thats the difference right there

After all,

What more could you expect?

Author notes

I wasn't trying to rhyme dead and protect dont' worry!

    I Love the anger you have here. Ending with a question is a great technique to leave the reader thinking about the poem long after they read it, so nice job there. Great poem you have here!
