When my rib cage splits open and displays the rotting creature inside will you still love me? When my bones are replaced with flowering hemlock and nightshade and my blood turns to muck, Will you still love me? When my skin becomes ash, my hair turns to vines and my feet grow roots, Will you still love me? When nature prevails and I am no longer me, I must ask this of you: Will you still love me?

From Whence You Came
When my rib cage splits open and displays the rotting creature inside will you still love me? When my bones are replaced with flowering hemlock and nightshade and my blood turns to muck, Will you still love me? When my skin becomes ash, my hair turns to vines and my feet grow roots, Will you still love me? When nature prevails and I am no longer me, I must ask this of you: Will you still love me?
