It is published so it is copyrighted so no one get any ideas. I love suing people.

Drained of life
Cannot go on
Soul is hurting
Almost gone
Breathing slowly
Pulse is dying
Life cut short
Tired of trying
Breathing stopped
Pulse is dead
Eyes are bulging
Carpets Red
Knife is lying
On the floor
Mom is knocking
On the door
Flings it open
Screams and shouts
All I hear
Are sobs and pouts
Death is hear
All I see
Are people Crying
Over me
Life was bad
Death was good
Im undergrgound
Encased in wood
From what you've read
You'd probably guess
Suicide
Like all the rest
But it was murder...


I wrote that in 3 minutes sitting on my front porch while I was smoking my first newport in 2 years at the time

I am no longer that person, I have money. Money might not give you complete happiness but it gives you enough not to want to kill yourself.
I am beyond happy though So no one need to worry. I just never put it out there like that.

My tired ass forgot 4 lines the green section will be the one I forgot.

Death is hear
All I see
Are people crying
Over me

They come and go
Half these people
I do not know

Just curious..who published this? I am a very modernist poet and don't care for rhyming much, but that's just the way I learned poetry. Too much space is wasted in rhyming and your word choice has to fit the rhyme instead of using a word that might speak more to you as the writer.

Poetry should be descriptive. Show it, don't tell it. Appeal to the physical senses and that will usually trigger the emotional response you're trying for.

Sorry for all the criticisms; it is meant to be constructive, not derisive. From a poet to another poet, keep writing! Your best work comes each time you pick up a pen. And don't be afraid to go back to old poems and add to them. Poems are never finished, just abandoned.

At least you have the guts to post your poems on ATS. Nice job for that! That's something I won't be doing anytime soon haha

Edit: By the way...where's the title? Every poem needs a title. It says what you the writer could not say in the poem.

Well I published It. And I did not write it to criticize either. I think it was damned good. You said you wish you could write like that. Well then why do you criticize someones work who is better than yours just be happy reading it or sad which ever one.

Institutionalized in the Free world is the Title.

And it is finished. It needs nothing else. I said what I wanted to say.

I see you discovered that killing people can pay - but watch out for the military, they are the walmart of mercenaries;.
