Consumed
by Anne Engelen
Congratulations are in order
For a job well done
Today I killed myself
Without the use of a gun
Pills or even a knife
I put myself out there
Just enough, it took my life
With nothing to hide
And full of trust
I entered this acid night of disgust
Slow and painfully I became
An after curfues consumption
For the night to digest
Consumed like a midnight snack
Swallowed down
With no way back
Squeezed like an orange
Drained from all my lifes juices
An empty shell
My only remains in this living hell
