My Violence - A Pregnant Light

Youth has run out

A young boy

Filled with hope and joy

Aged on the vine

Made into poison with time

I have listened and heard

Every part of me burns

Did it for the money

Did it for the pleasure

Did it for no reason

Did it for my ego

Raw from the pain

It’s nothing to me

I can go where you won’t

It’s nothing to me

All of the chaos i made in this life

Blood for the bounty

A chain and a knife

I ripped though the skin

And saw the middle soft-pink

Fleshy and helpless

Disgustingly weak

The anger breathes holy

For my violence to be
