Your apples were as savory as sunlight
I can’t remember the last time they seemed so sweet
The last time they were as red as roses
The last time they smelt so great
I fear there is nothing left here anymore
I can't remember how long I've been here
Or when the maggots came
I can’t remember when the taste had changed
From sweet to sour
When the rose color began to rot
When these sores appeared
I fear there is nothing left of me here
Only the husk of my body
The salt from my tears
And the maggots I've eaten
Trying to remember the taste
