The Worms Must Feed

I can’t help
But feel like there is
Something crawling
Deep within
Living in me, feeding off me
Or am I feeding it

Can’t you see, my dear, I’m bleeding
But I’m too far gone to care
I ate the worms to carve the craving
I’ll use the can to set them free

I force my trembling fingers
Down my throat to purge the sickness
They’re hungry
The worms must feed

I submit
Take me, my parasite
I submit

Take me, my parasite
