That Night It Said

Last night I had no eyes And I grew ten claws It is probably because I am not myself most of the time

That night it said, "I love you. I love you." I am not sure if I said it back Because I was dreaming And you never know with dreams

The day before a million fruit flies crawled out Of my mouth Probably Because I was not myself Or maybe I just love fruit too much That was a joke

That day he said, "Kill your self." And it said, "Shut up." I never considered killing myself anyway But I appreciated the sentiment Of fighting back

Today I have two eyes And ten fingernails that need to be trimmed Probably because I am myself But it is okay if I am not Because I appreciate the sentiment Of fighting back
