Full of hate and bitterness
With nothing left to do
Just wait and be a witness
For when they trial you
I've committed no crimes
Just jealous of those men
I told you many times
But i'll tell you once again
and I just can't change that
bear me if you can
or discard me as your tat
I'm only good for one thing
My vitriolic prose
I just shout and scream, cannot sing
I feel naked in my clothes
You took away my heart
and polluted my last breath
So finally I depart
But not into my death
I'm waiting for the hatred
to burn me deep inside
I know that you have waited
Until i had no pride
All i've left is poetry
And now you've polluted it
I feel that I'm not free
but constricted by all of it
I'm slowly losing touch
and hope that they'll convict
I'm not hoping for much
Only that there strict
I'd hate to see you go
but you've forced me into this
I think i'll ruin the flow
but I couldn't give a damn.

Hehe... interesting ending. And nothing personal, but the title made me snicker. Just a bit cute. That's all.
It's a pretty good poem. "I feel naked in my clothes" caught my eye.

Wow, I liked this one. Especially the end.....the last line was great. You are quite the poet!
