Rot
Wrap me in your warmth,
Even when it gets cold.
For one moment at least ;
I'd like to feel whole.
Kiss me, tell me you love me.
Even if it's not true.
Because i'm tired of feeling this way ;
So cold, So blue.
Tell me, even if it isn't true.
Tell me beautiful lies,
Just for a bittersweet second.
Let me fall into them, intake them.
Breathe them in, live in them.
Before you ruin my fucking life.
Wrap me in your embrace,
Before you break everything i am.
Tell me i'm beautiful;
Even though i'm not.
Give me one moment in the sun,
Before i become what i am,
Before I return back to the soil.
And begin to decompose,
Before I rot.
Even when it gets cold.
For one moment at least ;
I'd like to feel whole.
Kiss me, tell me you love me.
Even if it's not true.
Because i'm tired of feeling this way ;
So cold, So blue.
Tell me, even if it isn't true.
Tell me beautiful lies,
Just for a bittersweet second.
Let me fall into them, intake them.
Breathe them in, live in them.
Before you ruin my fucking life.
Wrap me in your embrace,
Before you break everything i am.
Tell me i'm beautiful;
Even though i'm not.
Give me one moment in the sun,
Before i become what i am,
Before I return back to the soil.
And begin to decompose,
Before I rot.

Beautifully intense piece I like👏👏
The ending was wonderfully dark and powerful,
"Give me one moment in the sun,
Before i become what i am,
Before I return back to the soil.
And begin to decompose,
Before I rot." Excellent! I dig this👏
