a poem by me

oh shoot i can't figure out what to call this. comment and give me some suggestions.

Breathing the inferno, souls in annihilation
Twisted lullabies play fast and loud, vocalizing their frustration
Eerie fog rolls lazily in, as spirits rise from watery graves
Stars kiss midnight skies goodbye, over abandoned oceans' waves...
----------------------------------------------------------
Color me intoxicated, poison me away
Because I've lived and grown to learn that people make you pay
Concentrated efforts onto getting what I want
Pissed off at the world for being oh so nonchalant
Shattered all the mirrors to upset my own reflection
Bruises appear like tiny jewels, signs of a new infection
And as the devil shakes my mind, I begin to feel some ease
Heaven's burning up now, as hell begins to freeze
Waves break apart the static air, filled with a jet-black notion
I want to sink my teeth into the bottom of the ocean
To crack the highest mountain, till the demons ring a call
I want to bleed upon a stage till everyone's enthralled
Hiding behind prosthetic feelings and porcelain expressions
I'll barricade my tears back in, locking up my confessions
So I'll open up my mouth and I'll draw a shaking breath
Take my turn at reaching for whatever they have left
I can taste the sneer behind your words, part of the flood
Upon these walls, they have left answers written in blood
Saving me from myself, the disenchanted sing
Turned black from ages passed, too frail to feel the sting
An accident's a great place to be called a turning point
Hospital calls to rub it in, serves just to disappoint
So call to mind the blank machines to which I'm now plugged in
Breathing electricity, too weak to hope I'll win
The machines are dead, tested and failed, and I am gone for good
Freed from my empty pointless cage, a life misunderstood.
