A Feast to Remember
You came into the world
Awaken I am because of you
I thank thee
For fearing not me
For I rather you fear thyself
I quench my thirst for your tears
Each flavor
Envy tastes very memorable
Jealousy is rather bitter
Pain soothing to the buds touch
I will you to compare your flesh to another
Why complain?
You know you can buy it all
I yearn for you to question decisions
Boredom, sigh, yawn
Pick up that phone
Send that text
Because you are in dismay of reality
Drown in the idea of rejection
Rejection has a stingy scent of sadness
Speak of that luxury of smelling
Hate that nose you think is morbid?
The nose you despise on your sensitive face
Forgetting it’s purpose of breathing
You’d rather hide behind your raven curls
Or those brown eyes that are a mask
To the window of your unsoul
For souls are mentally living in purpose
Try it on, you know it will make you feel big
But not in the areas you think define a true woman
Don’t speak in class, you assume they think you’re inarticulate
Is that me or is that you?
I eat away at your anxiety
The kind you give yourself because you like complaining
Do you like being a victim
Does it water what you call an ego?
So sweet and savory I begin to drool
It is so easy to be negative than positive
I applaud you
For being human
I’ll go as far as introducing harm
Would you like to add more scars
The scars you get you think are ugly
You think he would call you ugly?
You don't see yourself the way he does, or they do
Pause, you earned those as battle scars
But you insist it is a negative thing
Because your skin is marked
Isn’t your mother proud of her crecent skin?
The marks you gave as you grew within
You fear living more than death
We are never truly alive unless we die
Ask Eurydice
You think Orpheus missed her?
Think not
He feared losing her to a person who can for her be better
He fears losing masculinity
So as he, you write it
As the hand shivers to eat
Knowing what can go inside can alter the outside
I love stealing self controL
It is a blanket at night as I rest my head on your desires
I despise self-appreciation
Why?
Because you are not special
At least that is what you convinced yourself
Grab the hand held
I promise it won’t crack
Want to defeat me
Fear me winning and hope to defeat yourself
Fear is what you call upon
When you yearn and not earn
Prevail the lesson, not the fail
The disappointment of a parent
Overbearing to you as their legacy, not a memory
Here you are worried about the wrong things
Half empty or half full is your mind
When you think not of an unwanted outcome rather than a possibility
What do I know
Besides I being the reason why
The sole reason you
Pain
Weep
Doubt
Compare
The reason you are a non-believer
A non-believer in the only thing you should know
A religion, a temple, an entity of its own
Yourself
What happiness could you obtain but banish at the thought
The chilling thought of failure of you and for others
I can’t even breathe, vulnerability never tasted so good
