..Sonnets for somebody..

Hey there, can you be my Delilah?
Because there's flowers in your hair.
Can you be my beauty,
Throw rose petals into my nightmares.

Can you be the knife that stabs me?
Stitch my wounds with cotton candy?
Can you be the lipstick on his collar?
Could you be the one who wished you had one less dollar?

Could you?

Could you be a killer?
Because you already killed me.
Could you be my medication?
Because I'm already overdosing.

Could you be poison?
Because you are toxic
Could you be LSD?
You're burning my eye sockets.

Could you be perfume?
Because I'm allergic to you.
You never loved him,
You just got used.

Could you be my coffee?
Fill me with shakes.
Could you be my caffeine?
Leave me to sedate.

Could you be sugar?
Because you rot my teeth.
Could you be my tea?
Because you're bitter and mundane.

Could you be my favorite book?
Because it always ends the same.
Could you be me for a minute?
Because I'm crying in the rain.

Could you be doctors office?
Full of illness, but trying to help.
Could you be a lighter?
Because I thing you've burned out.

Could you be my everything?
Because I'm not okay.
Could you be my lungs right now?
Because mine can't breathe.

Could you be my heart right now?
Because mine won't beat.
Could you be my sight, my eyes?
Because mine can't see.

Could you be my brain?
Because I think mines damaged.
Could you be my life?
Because mines a train wreck.

Could you be my glass of water?
Because mines empty.
Could you be my spine?
Mines broken you see.

Could you be my roses?
Because I'm covered in thorns
Could you be something beautiful?
The person you were born.

Could you be my words?
Because I can't speak.
Could you be my face?
I can't look at myself you see.

Could you be my clock?
Because I can't see reality.
Are you nothing to me?
Because without you I'm working perfectly.
