Perfume

(cw romantic gore, obsession)

and i crave you, you who my mother told stories of, grateful that i'd never meet you. i wonder if she's worked out that i met you long ago.

i give myself to you again take me hold me kiss me touch me

use me, for your pleasure i never was a treasure so snatch me at your leisure and never set me free

undress me and see if i'm all you desire unstitch me and see what holds me together unfurl me and see what i keep inside unmake me and see how the pieces fit

hit me you don't need a reason why kick me the sound of bone snapping is my lullaby choke me til the light drains from my eyes

cut me see how i rend tear me pull the sinew til it snaps gut me find that gorgeous rope and hang me that i might dance for you once more

my useful parts don't take much room there's no reason i need be intact so shed this old costume reveal the monster that you hide let my love for you bloom let me show you my devotion please send me to my doom and paint the mattress red

inhale my perfume the stench of death shall mark you
