A smell like burning human on a cool Fall Night

 

I've become everything I never wanted to be

So I take another sip of your martini fate

And break the glass now upon my skin

As the shards tattoo my sinful bones

 

Strike a match against the ground

I smile as the fire consumes your face

I laugh again as we're breaking apart

By the thick black smoke that smells like

 

Burning human flesh

Smoldering human on a cool fall night

Red and blue lights shine

Missing the scene of the crime

 

We're separated again

And something inside of me doesn't really care

I cared a sufficient amount before

Now I only care enough to pour the gasoline onto

 

Burning human flesh

Smoldering human on a cool fall night

Red and blue lights shine (lights shine)

Missing the scene of the crime (you weren't there)

 

X rated from the hateful words that were shared

Yesterday as we sat crying on the leaves

On the ground wet from our blood

And tears that now fall onto your

 

Burning human flesh

Smoldering Human on a cool fall night

Red and blue lights shine

Missing the scene of the crime

 

I turn to run away

And only run into an incarnation of the past

When we were together at last

Maybe it was guilt that slapped me in the face

But I still don't know

To this day why

I … ran… back to the scene of the crime

 

There's chalky outline on the pavement

Where you laid a minute ago…it was just a minute ago

It was my fault that

The neighbors smelled

 

Burning human flesh

Smoldering Human on a cool fall night

Red and blue lights shone

Missing the scene of the crime

 

I am being cuffed from behind

As my final tears fell

Where your heart would be

If you were still there.

 

Red and blue lights shone

Missing the scene of the crime

Red and blue lights shone

Missing the scene of the crime

 

It was too late

actually,. i have something to say!

 

 

think its a really cool poem,. but for some reason,. i think it would work better as a prose,.. (just a thought)

 

really dark subject,. glad that you feel free to explore that side of your feelings. i write pretty dark stuff too usually about death and decay and burning, and blood . and stuff like that

 

can i just ask,. what inspired you to write this? what does the burning signify??,..

 

for me, when i write about burning it usually signinfies a part of me that im burning off because I dont like it,..

 

sometimes in a weird way,.it could also mean purification and cleansing,..

 

heres a link to one of my poems along the same lines.

link removed

 

 

keep up the good work,.
