Death of a Child

by Zachary   Jun 1, 2011


Laughing on the
inside I die
with every word
I tip further
about to end
this over is
my fear
controlling the
breathing of a child
ends tonight
as your words
blade sinks
into the veins
another lost soul
never found
always in the corner
back open for
the world
attacks on
everything bleeding
hearts destroying
the only chance
of peace
death following
by the shadow
a child is found
in tears
he will
go forever
the child will
be the forever
memory shaken
torn is nobody
knows name
is lost life
taken by words
shot at him
alone in his
corner no peace
was found back
to the world
holes torn through
nameless child
long forgotten
was not his pain
forgiven not his name
lost since birth
was left forgetting
the name on the
lips of no one
Zach
long gone
forgotten since birth
by his blood
already cold
dried washed
away with his
tears rain drenching
his soul frozen
his spilt blood rains
washing memory
from heart
intentions unknown
is Zach
dead
alive
who cares
whose Zach
you dont care
I dont know
does anyone
have a heart
no
have this childs
he doesnt need it
he was just
another dropout
his blood pooled
friendless loser
his wrists slit
untrustworthy fool
he died alone
his back was
to the world
he screamed
no one heard
thats okay
it was just
the child
of no friends
useless to him
was his life
Unanswered screams
end with the plea
Rest In Peace
Zachary R Travis
Name in stone
but already forgotten
Death of a child
ends with no peace
