Beloved Maggots
I look into this haunting window
Filled with torn shadows of the past
They cover this window like curtains
And hide what hurts and lasts
The maggots whisper secrets
Of untold adventure and mystery
Beloved maggots, should I take this death?
The death you want me to seek
Why do you want this so needingly?
You ask, "Why be so meek?"
I am meek because I fear death
You say, "Death is inevitable."
And that I must believe
You want this because Im eatable
You just want to decieve
Filled with torn shadows of the past
They cover this window like curtains
And hide what hurts and lasts
The maggots whisper secrets
Of untold adventure and mystery
Beloved maggots, should I take this death?
The death you want me to seek
Why do you want this so needingly?
You ask, "Why be so meek?"
I am meek because I fear death
You say, "Death is inevitable."
And that I must believe
You want this because Im eatable
You just want to decieve
