Maggots
Why does this keep happening?

I know it can't be real

They keep coming

And they let loose the maggots,

They crawl in your skin

They feast opon your isides

I scream in pain

But the feasting still remains

I feel them in my head

Then they crawl out of my eyes

I know I should be dead

But I'm still alive

This pain I cannot bare

I feel like letting go

But I can't

The maggots stop feasting

The pain goes away

I hear my radio

Then I wake up

It must have been a dream

I know it was

But why cold I feel pain?

I stand up

Then go downstairs

I walk over to the fridge

When I open it

The maggots come out

They forever feed on my putrid skin.
