Wrote this one one night when should have been reading for class. I call it "The Lament of Victor's Child"

In the snow where I wake,
Blood is on my two hands.
Headless screams spill,
From dead promises now.

These deaths I disavow.
Though suicidal still,
Simply, none understand,
The bleak path I must take.

Haunting the new sunshine,
The silence is slaughtered.
Forcing up writhing wraiths,
From freezing mental graves.

It's their humor I crave -
The joy in their dead face.
A brief moment's falter,
As fire sweeps the pine.

Tortured flames are blazing,
In all of their horror.
Silencing the desires,
Of my bleeding heart.

And so I do depart;
Away with scalding fires.
I may have been a monster,
But at least I was something.

***

No offense, but the poem sounds forced, not sincere, i hear no rthym.
Multiply your efforts.

Maybe that's the style he's shooting for. It's suppose to be a jagged not smooth one.

Life is run, it is dance, it is fast, passionate and BAM!, you dance and sing and booze while you can for now is the time and time is mine. Smile and laugh when still can for now is the time and soon you die!

I was experimenting with a abcd/dcba efgh/hgfe ect. style. It is supposed to be a little choppy to reflect the speaker's state of mind.

Victor refers to Victor Frankenstein. The poem is the creature talking before he suicides.

and I took a lot of inspiration from this webcomic:
