What is your opinion on this poem?

I did this as a kind of exercise for a thing I'm writing. It's from the point of view of one of my characters. Let me know what you think, and what you might expect the character to be like. ;)

Keep the ice around my body

Don't let the cold shell break

Feed me the poison of your smile

Don't let me know it's fake

Kill me slowly, I am willing

Just keep me iced and numb

Don't let me feel the pain of living

Drug me up till I succumb

Eat the soul I haven't got

I've nothing left to give

Just promise me you'll let me die

So I don't have to live

    Sounds like song lyrics :)

    I can definitely feel the speaker's pain in this. But it also seems as though the speaker enjoys the pain. Just my opinion...

    Keep writing!
