In a room full of babies
You would be most innocent
or so I used to think
But since you led a mutiny
To devour me from within
I don’t know what to think
Even my pain is confused
The light of your betrayal
Blinds my decomposition
Of the love we used to know
While I’m rotting away
You broke my shell
Made me slug
Dropped me in space
How do you go from opium
to Sodium
Cyanide
You were poison all along
I curse the day
The day I learnt how to hope
I should have known
you stole my heart
and I locked you up
in my cells, but
now my DNA is MIA
for I never recognised
the compromises
I made my disguise
How I wish I were useless
Maybe then you would
use less of me
as I am
Defeated. Depleted
Have the mercy
to leave me for dead
