For You

By bedazzled

I wear a dress of rusty nails, heavy, it pierces my skin. I don't bleed. I just walk, keep walking, step after painful step. They can't see me stumble. I'm not real; I'm a pretty illusion that breathes the air they want me to. Inhale, exhale, a slow suffocation just to mask my lies. It's. all. for. you. For you and your intoxicating love, this bittersweet addiction I cling to. This cold deterioration, this tissue damage deep inside. This dark and twisted chain around me, these consuming shadows and poison words. I can't, I can't stop. Can't live without you anymore. So I wear this dress of rusty nails for you, for you, for you.
