Some type of disease

Like a cold

Making me sick

Miserable

Unable to breathe

Making my head foggy

Annoying

 

Or maybe its worse

Like a deadly virus

Body sweating

Stomach curdling

Emptying its contents

Over and over

Until the taste of bile

Stay permanently

Im my mouth

 

But no

 

You

You're a cancer

 

Killing me slowly

Leaving subtle symptoms

Barely there

Until suddenly its all about you

All about the lies you tell

The harm you've done

And by the time you start

Making big waves

Making big impacts

Its too late

The damage is done

 

And the only cure is to endure

A pain worse than you

To **** myself willingly

Poison myself

In the hopes that you drown in it too

 

I had hoped you were just a cold
