When I offered you my hide
You stitched it together to keep the both of you warm
When I offered you my flesh
You stoked it on a fire which you kindled with my bones
When I offered you my fangs
You crafted them into a crown to adorn her head
When I offered you my heart
You laughed and ripped it out of my empty chest
When she stole your pelt, burnt your bones, and ate your heart
I simply had nothing left to give you
