My Medusa Feeds on My Mirror Reflection

I’ve offered myself on this raft 
chew and rip at me
Take me apart and graft me to yourself
The more she feeds the more she needs
Meek as I crumble like stone
To the guilt she makes me feel
My medusa kills me slow
She seeks me out to stab me 
Oh but she didn’t mean to
Tells me that she loves me 
While holding the knife she wishes to kill me
To steal 
Peel me apart
Wear my semblance like a suit 
Because she can’t stand her own
She’s tried it on and won’t give it back 
She hates me because I won’t let her be me 
I won’t let her feed
I can’t let her swallow me whole
And she is getting hungry
She is hungry
