Deep down, you’re really shallow.

Everything inside you screams hate

Yet every glance you give me is filled with love.

Your tongue whispers of our grand fate,

But your fingers begin to lace

Closing down on my throat.

What is it about me you love so much?

Whisper in my ear dear,

For I can play this game too.

You, my darling,

Are just the bait

All that you fear is coming near.

Are you eager to begin?

Trying to snake your way into my heart

Unsuspecting of the parasite who’s been by your side all along.

You, an apple with an already rotten core.

Why would you notice me?

Soon you will.

The end will come for you

And your silly game dear.

I’m the nightmare from your happiest dreams.
