you are red meat by Olivia Weinkeinyou are pathetic and
pathetic is me.
you are red meat and darling
i am starving. push me over
the edge or dangle me along
side. i opened up. you
got lost inside. i find a
million more ways to try and
hide. it's fancy i know and you
can't help but smile. i eat boys
for breakfast but i do it with
style. clap your hands
if you don't care. i'm cheap and
hollow. you're still there. you
can come out now if you want to.
i will stay put and become something
new. look, i'm a flower. now watch
how i'll shine. i'll take every
seed you have and make them all mine.
you can touch if the need is there.
i will touch too everything and anything
and nothing. All things.
except for you.
