What is real
What is fake
How much more
Can you take
Do you look back
Can you still see
The person that
You used to be
fear is a trivial concept
our frail minds twist and turn our experiences to sculpt mighty monsters before us
upon closer inspection, however, these monsters are merely a popcicle stick model stuck together with glue
You said this is real love
the kind you see on the big screen,
the kind everyone wants,
the kind no one sees behind closed doors,
and because I loved you
I believed it.
Sick love.
We hold each other.
So sick and tainted.
Our flesh is whole but our souls are rotten,
It's a maggot ridden love.
Our feelings nibble holes through our hearts.
