Crawling

Crawl up inside of me like you’re an infection inside of my skin, don’t you want to feel ecstasy like you did back then? Don’t you wish to feel my breathing on your neck? Right before my lips crash into yours as I’m giving to you my last breath Don’t you want to take it? Don’t you wish to suck the life out of me? I’m sorry, was I mistaken? That was love? I thought it was a sordid fantasy One where you’re the master, and you get to say, whether or not you will use me up or choose to let me stay See your love is a lot like poison it tastes so sickly, sweet going down, but when it hits rock bottom there it curdles and eventually drowns Drowns those beautiful butterflies, the ones that once fluttered within, now they’re just sickly reminders crawling underneath my skin Trying to claw their way out into the light, they wish to leave this darkness within me that you created on that dark, seductive night A night long ago when you laid me down there in your arms, and you promised to always love me and to never cause me harm Well, my love you did, and this pain won’t quit crawling through my heart, take your senseless promises and leave them scattered around with all that is left of me here in the dark.
