Selfish

A vicious monster lives in me

Often rearing its ugly self

Exclusive

That's what it shouts

Like a nagging bitch so hard to please

Deserving to rot.

Want me

And no one else

Look at me

And then erase everything

In your peripheral vision

Smile at no one

Stop melting hearts

And speak to no one

Do not captivate with your sound

Do not touch another's flesh

I die every time you do, in my mind

Poisoning myself with images

Of you with another

When I have yet to taste your warmth

Why must beauty be so accessible?

Why must you look at me from afar?

Let me lock you up

Or devour you whole

My love is a prison

Not yours

But my own.

Author's Notes/Comments: 

... i am sorry for having these feelings. ugly feelings, when all that you deserve is beauty ...
