I Am

Before reading, know that, at least physically, I am not any of these things.

I am the life support
Pull me and I will cut short
I am the monolith
Large scale like an obelisk
I am the cold sweat nightmare
Bats crawling in your hair
I am reptilian
Cold blooded godzillian
I am your lover’s kiss
Equality to nothing bliss
I am an angel spawn
Used until the break of dawn
I am the zombie massacre
Apocalyptic chronicler

I am a god
I am a lowlife
I am the envy of everything and no one

I am a seizure
Epileptic freezer
I am the heart attack
Making everything go black
I am the perfect machine
Clock work with a glossy sheen
I am the jester king
Laughter steady echoing
I am the trigger finger
And the bullet harbinger
I am the final breath
Sweet, lingering, nothing left
I am the voices locked in your mind
Screaming at your fiber til you unwind

I am a god
I am a lowlife
I am the lunatic locked inside a wall-less cell
I am the straitjacket
Binding you against your wit
I am the combat boots
Marching through trenches with the troops
I am the wicked grin
Revealing intentions from within
I am a behemoth
Locked away frozen mammoth

I am the sniper watching from a hidden place
I am the satellite observing you from outerspace
I am the sovereign king giving you commands
I am the beaten slave giving in to your demands
I am the cancer devouring
I am the pressure overpowering
I am the psychopath avenging forgotten wrongs
I am the lyricist writing these horrid songs

    This is an amazing poem I really enjoyed reading it, thank-you.
    Can I put a link to your poem on my website please? My website is smashbreeze.com it’s still pretty new but you can find it on a search engine, I will state that it is your work and not my own and only a link not the actual poem. You can leave a message via the contact page at smashbreeze.com, if you are interested, looking forward to hearing from you and reading more of your work in the future.
