Paint Me Bitten

your posion is all i can eat

Please, let me just have one bite. One. I won’t eat any more, I promise, I just need one bite to make the hurting go away. You don’t know how much this hurts.

Yeah, I do. I am you, remember? I feel your pain but, unlike you, I appreciate it. You should too.

But I need to eat. I need to eat so I can live. I need to eat so my parents won’t send me to the loony bin, which they could’ve done last time, if I hadn’t have lied my way out of it.

I don’t care.

Fine. I’m going to eat. I mean, what can you do to stop me?

I can make you hurt. You know I can. You’ve felt it before, many times. I love how you beg me to stop, how you scream so silently, how much you writhe…

I won’t eat.
