This poem was based off of a dark thought that I had for quite some time. Something about how man has always been trying to kill each other since the beginning of their own very existence. Yet the amusing part is that we as mankind want to survive at the same time as well. This poem is based off of that viewpoint. Comments are open.

Swimming in Blood

 

To regret

To write this.

 

This is all

That I have left.

 

A Gift

And

A Curse.

 

No one

Can see

What I see.

 

And it’s sad

That everyone

Will die

Eventually.

 

Of the red

That has covered

My eyes.

 

Drowning

Leaves

My thoughts.

 

Just to fight

For natural survival

Is all

That this is.

 

From all the others

That have fallen

To this.

 

To die

In this

Is just

Sickeningly Twisted.

 

This is

The end.

 

The end

Is this.

 

For maybe

The world

Drowned

In it’s own

Blood.

 

The bodies

Float.

 

Maybe they

Thought otherwise.

 

But for now

This is the end.

 

The end

Of this.
