A Delayed Reaction

Can you rinse all my fear out?

Wash me clean with your saliva

Make me explode, tear me apart

I want to see you, feel you

These outbursts are killing me

Won’t you see to them

Won’t you tend to my selfish needs

Realign me, fix me

Shape me

Make these needs your own

and cleanse me pure

These thoughts and dreams were enough

But with those gone,

I’ve never felt so impure

Don’t look at me, don’t think about me

I’m soiled, I’m tainted

And I can’t take it back
