Rotting In Love

As tears fall I open my moldered eyes to see myself Blurred and grotty I’m beginning to rot now My skin melting into my bedsheets Moldy and itching with pests Am i one of them? Am i another eyesore? Am i as revolting as the blowflies? I’ll admit that i feel Repugnant in love But how can that be so When i rot for you? Look at what i’ve done All for you I have never hurt so badly And this time it’s not because Of the bugs shredding my skin Burrowing But because you never left my heart You were always there Just another maggot Burrowed in my flesh
