The Toothache


AngelusErro

Recommended Posts

I woke up with this poem trying to smother me with a pillow this morning. It happens a lot. I have to keep a pad of paper by my bed anymore, to get them off me, so I can breath.

Mister lollipops and gumdrops

Sugar coated guile

He covers you in chocolate

And devours you with a smile

He peels your skin like bubblegum

Twisting, pulling, 'til you're weak

He sucks your bones like pixie sticks

Dripping marrow from his cheek

He will drink your soul from his silver cup

'Til your cherry syrup runs dry

He is the Candyman, baby

The Candyman cries just for you

He will give you everything

'Cause the Candymans' words are true

But the price you pay to enter his shop

Will rot you to the core

Beware, he is the Candyman, baby

You can only sugar coat so much

The worms, and lies, and blood, and pain

The tears that you will cry in vain

The mud, and bugs, the "looks of love"

Will sour your taste forever

And another. I have been introspective of late. These poems relate to some big life altering events of my life, over the past few months. Pardon the photohosting. I didn't know how to make the fonts all nifty on here, like on the other sites I have posted it.
