Would you know fear if you swallowed it? It's like eating off death in bits, only you're alive but you feel it; It's the bellows of craving that want to screech through your throat And as you ache, you accept- what you don't want but you've come to need. An intrusion, a love crime, a you. Would you know poison as you breathed it? It's like inspiring a monoxide, only it chokes but you like it. It's the hunger for catharsis that only comes with pain, As you embrace that this can destroy you- and you need it to. Because I do. It's the only way I feel about you.
