those little iNcessANt pieces of you

gNAwing oN my braiN

DevouriNg me from the iNside out

NeeD to gouge out my eyes

teAr off my Nose

rip off my eArs

remove every trAce

i yeArN for a New fAte

A New brANch

A New pAst

for ANyoNe to fill the blAck hole

to erAse his existANce from me

my miND

my boDy

i’m DrowNiNg iN my owN blooD

swirliNg arouND my sAlivA

AND chokiNg oN it

i see you iN the mirror

burroweD iN me like Dirt

Not like, Am

cAN i escApe?

Am i but a copy?

is thAt reAlly why?

cANNot scrub the strANDs cleAN

with these uNbAreAble, uNrippAble jeANs
