it's my first ever poem written in a high school i dont go to
It's all or/and/is nothing.

if i stuck a dagger in my chest, could i call it suicide? though by technicality it is, in reality i'm not the only one who dies. there's intentional collateral, cut my chest to spite my face. my target stays a specter still, this must not be the place. i tried to kill a dead man, to beat around the burning bush. i'll wander on full circle, wond'ring how the destination looks. so if this is all that life is, what did i expect from death? maybe life's the real eternal rest, maybe all this nothing's for the best.
