I could coat this love with chocolate But, love, that wont stop the rot of it No matter what I do You’re still gonna decay So nothing should stop me from walking away All these proud words, I’ll still stay Wouldn’t it not matter for you either way?
Cause a heart like yours that’s slowly deteriorating I can promise you, love, is more than infuriating You trample my flowers No words, no guilt I’ll grow them again just to watch them wilt I’ll grow them and you’ll ruin all that I’ve built Let’s just cover this heart with a chocolate gilt
And then, replace my soil with Soiled confections All in the name of earning Your bitter affections
I did NOT realize this had been sitting in my drafts for over a year I remember it being the reason I started writing poetry again
