Day 1: Apple
Most people get their time
as pristine pink blossoms
as round and perfect innocence
but I think I was born broken
The others needed worms
to burrow into their skin
they were torn apart bite by bite
by a cruel uncaring world
But the alternaria was in me
from the second I gained sentience
the black rot spreading
from my very core
And fungicide can’t fix it
and my soul cannot be cleansed
the only thing to do is
let me drop and save the harvest -
Day 2: Relic
Don't linger at an empty grave
There is no girl for you to save
He's sitting in his room at home
While you pretend you're all alone
He's cutting off his nice long hair
But the person he was is still right there
He's happy now, but much the same
Just going by a different name
There's no perfect woman in the dirt
But six feet above is a boy you've hurt
Don't mourn your daughter that is gone
And look upon your smiling son
(kind of rushed but i like it)
