Love Poem: Necrophagist

Necrophagist

the treatise was slandered
and i knew just then
the ideals i lived by
were barely paper thin
wincing at neo-fascists
and conversing in fours
despite it all
i'd never felt that lonely before

drag it out like it matters
asconced in a depth wringing open
i hit my head on the monkey bars
and went flying, broken
i understand i'm nothing
and i understand we're deathly
but how can i so much as run alive
if i'm not even breathing
i hate it all i tell you
and the tears well forth
i've never in all my life felt quite 
this lonely before

i'm a dead man and i know it
and i'm sick of repeating it
i'm not happy
but i'm not worthless
i'm just burnt on all the bullsh-t
you made me feel
because i'd love so much to feel nothing
hit me like they once hit n-ggers
i want so much to be dead and/or dying
but i can't so much as pull the trigger
but i think i said it all before
it's becoming a bore
never felt this lonely
before
