"My Special Pet"
Poem I wrote to one of my favorite Otep songs - Special Pets.
My Special Pet
I can smell you,
Taste you,
The heat rising on my skin.
You're my pyrogen.
I can feel it,
Burning within.
Your every breath,
Sending flames down my spine.
Your every touch,
I need you to be mine.
My special pet.
Won't you beg on your knees.
My favorite sin,
Forever I'll keep,
Locked up in my bedroom,
Chained to my bed.
You can't escape me.
My special pet.
Won't you plead for me,
Lie for me.
Won't you bleed for me,
Die for me.
Take your best
Bite out of me.
You're so contagious.
The infection begins.
A perfect disease,
In my body now lives.
My special pet.
I promise,
I'll never let go.
I need you,
Didn't you know?
As your flesh
Starts to rot,
And your blood
Starts to clot,
I'll still stand by your side,
And I'll take this knife,
I want every part of you,
It's no surprise.
Why else do you think,
I've kept you alive?
My special pet.
