Cocooned within beneath the skin
With tentacles like vices closing
Ever tighter underneath
They tear at me until exposing
How I suffer
Though I try to exercise these demons
I thought I had the strength to face this in your absence
How I suffer
Though I try injecting all of these reasons
But I’m host to all the faceless empty caverns
Wake up screaming am I dreaming
I think it’s eating me alive on the inside
You can’t see it on the surface
But I think it’s eating me alive on the inside
Oh God it’s the parasite
I think I’ve given it a name
Oh God please be here tonight
Before I drive myself insane
We all are an entity
I cannot separate
These open wounds brought the parasite
I cannot amputate
I think it’s eating me alive on the inside
I only want to see your eyes for a while
I think it’s eating me alive on the inside
Theres no resistance for the vacancy you left
You’re poetry is inspired, its wonderful. I can’t get enough. The way you form your lines paints quite a picture.
