Would You Still Love Me If I Were a Worm?

Would you still love me if I were a worm?
Became an insect unexpectedly
If my living in a nightmare transformed
So cruelly, dejectedly
 
Would you love me still
If I couldn't even show you my love
Will you believe that what's happening's real?
Or just give me a shove?

I know I'm good for nothing now,
Can't make myself understood
You're so anxious but anyhow,
Will you crush me when you're not in the mood?

How could I possibly anger you if I'm just a worm
I don't know what my fault is but I'm truly sorry
Maybe if i weren't so ugly and deformed
It would be a totally different story
 
I know you meet other people
Whom you fancy, kiss and touch
It's too bad that I don't have wings like a beetle
I miss sleeping in your bed so much

Of course I'm not happy but you're even unhappier
Can't beg for your love being like this
It's this insufferable barrier
Who us inevitably splits

I know it's better to die, what shall I do?
It hurts to know I won't anymore hear your voice
It hurts enough that I can't see you
Of course, that's not by choice.

On the other hand it's even better
That I can't see your utter disgust
I bet you'd hunt me like a pecker
Squish me through the tree crust

You can let me dry like between pages a clover
And I will still be enamored with you
Will crawl to you over and over
My love is now annoying but true

I wish you could feel all of it
When I'm curling around your fingers
But I'm afraid I'm too horrid
Have already vanished your feelings?

Maybe you'd love me if I were a kitten
Wouldn't fight the temptation to throw me away
Would remain the same, kind and smitten
And I wouldn't feel like a prey

Your salty tears will destroy my skin
I know that you wouldn't love me if I were a worm
The line between real and unreal is so thin
At least I hope you liked me in my human form
