Existence: Continous Rhyme Poem

I went to the store
store had nothing 
nothing on the I'll
I'll be right back
back from the grave
graverobbers stole my soul
soul hmph, never had one
one to begin with 
with that said my time is up
up for now
now I will leave you
you in the care of him
him who watched over me 
me who wasn't a leader but a follower
followed them to my demise
my demise was immonent 
immonent at the rate I was going 
going out of control
control wasn't the word 
word not available 
available at the moment 
moment of judgment is here
here I am standing here
here before the Lord
Lord give me another chance
chance to prove myself
myself hmph, don't deserve it 
it is out of my hands now 
now it is up to the maker
maker of life and death
death is scary 
scary even for me 
me who is not among you 
you the living 
living without a care in the world 
world isn't bad just bad people
people who are no good 
good only to themselves
themselves, which are evil
evil to the core
core is rotten 
rotten like me 
me who did the worst evil 
evil unspeakable
unspeakable in this poem
poem is nearing an end
end of the road
road is fading 
fading from existence
existence is no more
