He doesn't even like me He likes the idea of me Someone next to him in rank Something shaped like me But never me My feelings are nothing To him My emotions that Are stunted By this infection of darkness Spreading from my soul To my body The glow of life That just barely survives In me Pulled taut against the wall Of skin In my bodies Desperate attempt at survival They would **** me If they saw how dead I was He would not actually like me He is too shallow And would surely drown In my deepest oceans
