CANDY

Just like candy,
You were sweet to me,
Your candy had an aftertaste,
That I couldn't see,
Now I can taste bitter,
And you are far away,
I wish for that candy,
And each night I prey,
My teeth rotted away,
And my tounge turned green,
Now I need much more,
Than my old self esteem,
I cry out for you,
Now my throat is sore,
So I can't evan say,
Come back once more.
