Happy Burning Grave

Are you happy now?

Are you happy now?

Congratulations
(I hate you)
Another heart
(Thrown away)
Tally another mark
Keeping score

Another night
(So cold)
I can grab my own
(Frozen breath)
Watch it melt in my hands
And slip through my fingers

Are you happy now?
(You've broken another
Heart!) Happy now?

[Do
You feel it
Burning
Burning inside
Burn you alive]

[Feed the flames
And watch
Everything
Burn
Down]

[Burn
Down
Burn]
(You burn!)
You burn!
(You burn!)

Lies in your eyes
(Oh, your eyes!)
How they stabbed me
(A dozen times)
Through the chest
Killing me

Such hideous beauty
(In your smile)
You'll fake a life
I hope
He breaks you
I hope he breaks you

Are you happy now?
(You've broken another
Heart!) Happy now?

All I have
Is this pen
And your
Slow demise
(Sealed in ink)
I'll ready your coffin
Dirt for your grave
Bury another heart

What's the score now?
[Burn!] (Happy now?)
Are you happy now?

Above is my comment, but I think it was logged into wrong account, hence why it says 'jen'. But I really love your poems and will come back to read more! Btw, my page is http://milacross.blogspot.com

I think this one would work to music. Not sure how you were envisioning the stuff in brackets to work when you wrote it, but in my mind I slowly whispered (these parts)and changed to a stern dark voice for [these]. Interesting poem.

That's a deep poem. It reminds me of some performance poems I heard this guy perform once. Do you perform your poetry?

I generally hate poetry. But this was really nice. Good song lyrics, methinks.
