18+ A man has faced life unwanted, like trash he has been thrown away, discarded. |
-Refuse- by Keaton Foster He sits In a bucket of shit He waits Upon a mountain of waste He lives In such a hellish state Nothing Not anything known Or anything sown Can save him No faith Can redeem him No God Could ever adore him He is doomed Death will be his way His once and for all escape A bullet to the brain A slit of the wrist Whichever is quickest To a man like him All of it matters none The pain he feels The ways in which he reels His stomach turns His blood boils His mind races wild His heart jumps along Skipping and thumping Stammering as it is fighting All the while whispering to itself Just one more beat Just one second left to endure He sits In a bucket of shit He waits Upon a mountain of waste He lives Such a hellish life Nothing Not anything known Can save him Refuse Is what he is What he has become It is all that he identifies with It is all that he understands There is nothing else for him When he was created He was destined to be wasted When he was born He was just as quickly discarded Thrown away by his parents Tossed aside as trash Placed out of sight Placed out of mind Removed from human status Never again did they return Never again did they care Alone he instantly became In such a state of nothingness He would forever remain Rotting away as he changed From flesh and blood To something putrid and diluted To something quite sickening Spoiling as he has aged Decaying as he has lived Rotted from purpose and meaning Unapologetically left wasting away Refuse What he is What he has become There is nothing else He is trash in a world Full of all that he knows As garbage… Refuse Written by Keaton Foster Copyright © 2014. |
