Life of The Walking Dead

If the dead were alive, none of us would survive.

Removed from you’re body,
Your limbs and your head,
This is the life of the walking dead,
 
Separated from your life,
Unable to live twice,
The life you once lived as the final price,
 
To the end it was a wonderful feat,
Your death was beautiful,
An astounding treat
 
So I say to you,
My angel of black,
Your death makes up for the things you lack

(2013)

The poem is about breaking down someone's self esteem to the point where they feel dead, to the point where its just part of their everyday life, to the point where its normal. This is the view point of the bully, the line "Your death was beautiful" is stating that they think what they're doing is a wonderful act. In real life situations, it is obviously not.
