"Parasite"
My soul has fallen decrepit
And I grimace at the touch of felicity
Your face has grown grotesque
And your presence parasitic
But I will no longer fall victim to carnage
Your pleads for forgiveness
They lay neglected
For you once held my trust
Now it bleeds from your hands
Escaping through every crack
Leaving just enough behind to show
The traces of what you have lost
And will never encompass once more
