A glance from you is a seed of kudzu.
The madness spreads,
wrapping around each tree,
gripping it in a panic.
This is not healthy.
I use you like I would pop pills
to forget about things
I don't like about my existence.
Can you lose yourself
within yourself?
Sometimes,
when I sit alone,
I wish the forest of my life would burn.
I would light the match,
and I could once again
see the sky.

A glance from you is a seed of kudzu.
The madness spreads,
wrapping around each tree,
gripping it in a panic.
This is not healthy.
I use you like I would pop pills
to forget about things
I don't like about my existence.
Can you lose yourself
within yourself?
Sometimes,
when I sit alone,
I wish the forest of my life would burn.
I would light the match,
and I could once again
see the sky.
