Burnt vila, save your own.



the cookies i made yesterday
tasted sweet
now, today, they are salty to me - like i talked to you about me
because thats all you do
you take everything that tastes good
and ruins by yourself, thinking salt is sugar
im eating, otherwise ill be hungry
but do i really need to? im afraid cookies arent the right thing for me
because i tried dipping it into milk so many times - trying to save its flavor.
and it comes in half, each time im eating less - doing less - hearing less.
Its vanilla taste isnt boring, i just think it makes me crazy
and i was born this way, nothing makes me change
and whenever i try to, they come out burnt.
