Cure me
Of this plague
That’s snaking around my throat
Allow me to tiptoe
To avoid confrontation
Social humiliation
I would speak if I could only say the words
Cure me
Of the echoing dull in my heart
A dying buzz
A cycle of depression
Undecipherable ****** expressions
Stunting my progression
I would sing if I didn’t care who heard
The vines circling my feet
Threatening to tighten
Forever clutching
Me in its embrace
I need you
You say you know me
Maybe I don’t want you to
The biggest lie, can’t you see?
Because I don’t even understand me
I hide behind poetry
I would pray to a God, if I were sure
Sure that this world kept its promises
Every inhale a burning desire
Reverberating thoughts clouding
Polluting my mind
Exhale
This isn’t a plea
But I am trying to oversee
But this love I feel for you
Isn’t meant for just one,
It needs two
This legacy of pain
Scorching my veins
Spreading the plague
A world filled of vague
Cure me
Before it spreads
To you
