A prize you thought you'd gazed upon, But no, my dear you’ve never been more wrong. I look divine from where you stand, But open my depths with the steadiest hand. You're chasing treasures, wishes, more- Yet my teeth grow sharper behind each door. You never asked why I stood alone, Just waltzed right in, hoping to find a home. But you led me nowhere, and I pulled you down. You fell for a mimic- And you did so quite ******* loud.

The Mimic
A prize you thought you'd gazed upon, But no, my dear you’ve never been more wrong. I look divine from where you stand, But open my depths with the steadiest hand. You're chasing treasures, wishes, more- Yet my teeth grow sharper behind each door. You never asked why I stood alone, Just waltzed right in, hoping to find a home. But you led me nowhere, and I pulled you down. You fell for a mimic- And you did so quite ******* loud.
I said my piece. I announced my shame. I said I’m not ready, I’m not playing love games. But that’s not what’s heard. It’s a challenge to be beat. Now I’m just an ******* with another man to eat
