No matter what you say
No matter what you do
You will never
Hate me
As much as I hate myself.
And I've won
I've won.
I relish in the comfort of knowing
That no one will take my place.
Because it is I who knows best
Of the teeth that rot inside my skull.
I know each of the names
Of the worms that wriggle inside my stomach.
And how my organs spoil
Upon seeing my own face.
You can't hurt me
In a way that is significant
For I guarantee
I've already tried it.
But much worse.
I am untouchable
For my fingers
Have already pealed off
All my skin.
I've won.
I've won.
And you can't take that away from me.
