Sudden Urge

A  SUDDEN  URGE 

I suddenly feel the urge 
To tell it all
You want to taunt me 
Go right ahead 
My own mind haunts me
Jump out of bed
The wicked one  said
Soon I will be dead
Fearing my life
Ending it all
Enable me knife
My name you do call

As dumb as they come
I frost all the air
You heat up the light 
A game, I strip and you stare
A game with no love
I do not play fair
I' LL still send you a kiss
For not wanting to care
I call it a  truce 
Just toss the coin in, my dear
The last fresh air I use
I know you will be there

A puppet you say, 
Abuse me you may
In time, it won't matter
I am yours any- way

Tormented, I' m not
Later  I' LL rot
Watching over me
Is that all you got?

A sinner by day, a sinner by night
Spilling the milk, spilling the beans
You have my attention, you know what I  mean.

I KNOW you can write Slam...you can not change the form title and make the write be something other than what it is....I challenge you to write different forms ;) this is not narrative form it's slam (very good of course!) but I think you can be more than a one trick pony? ( Deb ducks the pie!)

i love it.it seems like you have a small suicidal streak.i like the way you play russian roulette with words.you use them like weapons of war. and like pat benatar said, "love is a battlefield" till death do us part as the world falls apart
