feasting on undeath
steal your sublime subtle secrets
and your simple sacred breath
open up your stitches
kiss your grisly death
wallow in your future scars
loss is all that you have left

the best thing to ever happen
was when it couldn't be much worse
the wrath of reality
was treasured like a curse
the path of purest pain
plainly pleasure in reverse
the ride is how you died inside
suicide by hearse

blaze in a freezing night
razor through a knot
burnt blistered blackened sunlight
wasted like a thought
frightened flee from tomb, from grave
from shiver to the shock
sight unseen, unsane, unsaved
un-"used-up" then you rot

I love this. Truly well written, and has a great flow. And you get so much emotion from the way it's written. So much truth behind this, but written in a poetic way. Wonderful work.

and your simple sacred breath

was when it couldn't be much worse

I think I can only take you in small amounts, as your genius for poetry is huge. I have not read one poem that made me think that was ok, but the other ones are better. they are all better! WTF, man?!
