Go ahead!
Hit me with rocks
Shove my face in the dirt
Let slick pink worms wriggle in my nose
Go ahead!
Slice your brazen knife through my chest, deep in black corners
Let the blackened blood pool and choke in my throat
Go ahead!
Pick apart my fingers and toes, one by one, tear off the skin
Free my muscles from my bones
Go ahead!
Kick your steel boots in my head and watch my deepest thoughts spill
Soaking dry leaves with the future we planned
Go ahead!
Break my jaw and shatter my teeth
White little lies you force down my throat
Go ahead!
Scrape away the warmth till the ice is beneath
Pour salt in the open wounds left on my spine
Do your worst!
No matter what you do
I will, unfortunately, always love you
