What are you doing? Stop, please just stop!

My conscience is screaming at me,
Throwing itself against the barricades of my mind,
Kicking and punching so violently that my skull throbs with the pain.

But another voice is telling me otherwise
Pull the trigger. Go on, it'll be fun!
I feel the guttural tremors of its laugh ripple through my bones.
Pull the trigger!
My hands start to tremble.
Pull the trigger!
My mouth becomes dry.
Pull the trigger!
Pull it!
Pull it!
PULL IT NOW!

A wave of pressure washes through me,
My ears are ringing,
Pulsing with the cries of a million particles of air hurtling through the sky,
All finding refuge deep in the crevice of my eardrums.
I see the crimson blood on the floor.
What have you done?
My conscience is sobbing.
What have you done? What have they done to deserve this?
Animal
Savage
Murderer

But the voice silences it.
And now I can *really
think.
I feel the muscles in my cheeks pull,
But it isn't me,
The voice is controlling the smile that I have on my face.
Well done.
**Now you're mine.
You think I am weak
Just a skinny, visually un-muscular man
Who it be easy to toy with and I will not retaliate
It is so pathetic how many people just judge a book by its cover sitting on the stand
While they judge me off my appearance I begin to study their weaknesses and evaluate
For what people do not see when they call me weak and skinny is I have a dark secret
Deep inside my soul lies a creature, itching to mutilate
A reckless, blood-thirsty entity with razor sharp teeth and claws cocked back to act
It walks in a pitch black fur suit, a primitive 4 legged walker
My true being is a caged killer Alpha Wolf that is about to crack
You think I am weak
Thing is.....I have yet to reach my peak
Please give me feedback on this poem and any other poem I have written...it be greatly appreciated. Please and Thank You<3
Christmas is upon the masses
The white flakes fall, but
Hanging
Swaying,
Dripping
Upon the crisp white
A puddle frozen of crimson red,
Baubles of the deceased
Upon a branch, eyes bleed
Baubles,
Red,
Sightless
Eyes, cracked within, as blood
Drips between the cracks,
He hangs them with tinsel rope
Glistening in the sun,
Inscribed,
"Merry Christmas"
Still fresh from the cut
Blood like a leaking tap
Drip,
Drip,
Drips
Upon pristine snow,
"He is the tinsel hanger"
He waits until the white covers
Then he begins his
Christmas list,
He thinks them naughty in is eyes
So they now sway above the ground,
There is not always one,
For what is a tree with but
One
Bauble
Hanging,
More must adorn a single tree,
"Happy Christmas"
"Died Smiling"
"Jolly Dead"
Were his trademarks upon dead flesh,
Birds perch upon limp shoulders
Pecking, upon the dead,
The last things heard,
As he records his crime,
"Please don't **** us"
"Have a heart"
"A heart"
"A HEART"
Pleeeasss....
And then there is but muffled sound
"Thump"
Lifelessness now upon the ground,
Another Bauble
For him to hang with tinsel
Above the freshly powdered ground,
He is the Tinsel hanger
He thinks the white gives purity
To his twisted deeds
Pray* that your not just left
A Christmas bauble,
Hanging,
Swaying,
Lifeless
Above freshly white snow, because
You'll not be alone this cold night,
Family will also be hanging around, tinsel  shimmering off *moonlight.
A
Surprise
is a silent killer
A death whisper in the
dark Taking away lives but
never love. Flesh and Blood but
never soul and mind  Never heart and
love as a whole. Life as we know it is a short
story . Something you should take in all it's glory.
Never take your life for granted in one moment you
could get short handed. A whole life gone in a blink of
an eye. At least I can say he was a great guy. Death is not
a forgiving friend, nor something to commend, Death is a
forever end. Claiming lives without warning. Causing a
lifetime of mourning. Changing fate, death is hate.
Something we all wish could wait. A thing
we want to stop when it's too late
When you are only left
wishing for a clean
slate
-Death struck my community today this poem is my heart going out to the family
It is meant to be the shape of a tear.

the sea is cold,
but the sea contains the hottest blood of all.*

             killer transients.
             people and whales.

             he needed to see his son smile
             & he did.
             a blue-trucked boy, hometown hero.

             he loved to fight
             & he fought to love.

             died in afghanistan for the pentagon boys.
            
             blame them. bomb them.
             submerge your vestigial limbs in days and home
             & simple mammalian living.
             wage and pray.
             little hours.
             little sweet nothings.

             people and whales fall older.
             think. write. ferment.
             the good deep.

             the hottest blood of all.

I have been in a coffin
trying to forget my sad days behind

I've been on a cliff
trying to jump my way to freedom

I have been a poet
trying to write my days away

I have been an orphan
trying to run from winter of no mercy

I have been a killer
found it soothing to drink warm blood from her veins

I have been a shooter
a fearless monster

I have been a keeper
trying to cherish the pain and void that kept me going
as i look at myself
i see my future
as i sleep
i see my dreams
as i think
i remember my past
i wonder what people would do if i were gone
i wonder what people would do or say
as i look at myself
i see me dying
as i sleep
i see my killer
as i think
i picture my dead body
as i draw
the blood drops on the floor
i wonder if people care
i wonder what people would do if i were gone
im ony 13 sooo please dont be rude
thanks love you
Red drips from my chin where I have been eating.
Not all the blood, nowhere near all, is wiped off my mouth.

Clots of red mess my hair
And the tiger, the buffalo, know how.

I was a killer.
          Yes, I am a killer.

I come from killing.
          I go to more.
I drive red joy ahead of me from killing.
Red gluts and red hungers run in the smears and juices
     of my inside bones:
The child cries for a **** mother and I cry for war.
