Scream me a proverb

Punch me a portrait

Kick me a scream

Throw me a lifeline

Pain me a dream

 

Breath me a mouthful

Exhale me a dot

Kill me twice over

Send me to rot

 

Hold my head under

Bleed me from eyes

Chop out my liver

Cover me in lies

 

Walk on beside me

While I feel myself run

Pour me your whiskey

From the mouth of a gun

 

Dig me up twice

Bury me again

Nurture my hatred

Feast on my pain

 

Show me your beauty

I’ll stab you once twice

Here I am here

Your reflection in ice

A really effective use of rhythm pace and delivery as a poem which | also feel could work well as song
Nice one
