An attempt at poetry.
Drip

Drip, Drip-

The blood

It forms in puddles

Can’t

Peel my eyes

From its

Glistening texture

What did I do?

Did I really

Mean it?

It can’t

End this

Way, it

Wasn’t my

Choice

It was forced

This

World

This god forsaken

World

Didn’t want me

They wanted someone

Perfect,

They wanted…

They wanted

Something I

Couldn’t, wouldn’t

Give them

My wrists

Won’t stop,

I am only doing

What they wanted

What the people

Of the world

Want

One less

Homosexual

One less

Fat person

One less

Christian

One less

One less

Catholic, Muslim

One less

Part of everyone

I’m the very

Face of diversity

And the entire world

Aims to

Destroy me

It is all right

It is being

Done

Any minute

Now I will

Cease

To exist

…I wonder

How many people

Will actually

Notice that

There is no

Longer any, any

Respect for others

Without me

There once was, but

Can, can you believe

BELIEVE

That there will

Be any without

ME

Slowly, it seems

To happen

As if one by one

People are

Lined up

Taking blood

Drip,

Drip, Drip-

The blood

It forms in puddles

Can’t

Peel my eyes away…
