Velvet Drops
A buzzing cacophony
A paroxysm of colors
An unending well
A fly zooming about in circles
Thoughts swarmed by twirls and whirls
Still my mouth yearns another
A velvet drop to soothe
No one left to bother
Stole another bottle
Still my mouth yearns another
Running these tips across my shoulder
Sending shivers of excitement
Tilt the point down the flesh
Tear and let it run amok
I shriek not in horror
As I drown in all the flavor
Yet something is chasing me
Something I don't understand
As I gulped once again
It comes crashing at my head
Something sharp is tearing me
Hurry and fix me
Pass me the sew
As I ran the needle all the cotton won't hold
A broken teddy bear is left hanging
As I am thrown away
I've come to think again
I shouldn't wish for much
I shouldn't have done that
I should've known better
Heh, what does anyone know?
I only wanted to be whole
