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
