My heart was ill , my heart was sick I can’t determine if it was a parasite or a virus Because it ****** my blood, all of it   It couldn’t live without me yet it killed me I’m not sure if it was a virus or a parasite For it was silent , I lived for months not feeling it sneak up on me Not feeling it weaken me , not seeing it killing me . Because I didn’t feel it grow inside me , use me , as it’s host for my endless amounts of love and life I didn’t feel it become a part of me , I’m not sure which one it was , because I didn’t know how to differentiate it from me Because it took over my thoughts , made me crave things I’ve never thought of  before Because it infected every single one of my cells with this disease called love Maybe it was just a bacteria . after all it did make me sick to my stomach Butterflies paired with a little histeria I believe he could take what was mine and make it his Could build a resistance to all my attacks and destroy all my bounderies Lay skin to skin preparing , waiting , starving to take it all , consume me , infect me

I'm not sure ,but I know I was profusely ill.
My heart was ill , my heart was sick I can’t determine if it was a parasite or a virus Because it ****** my blood, all of it   It couldn’t live without me yet it killed me I’m not sure if it was a virus or a parasite For it was silent , I lived for months not feeling it sneak up on me Not feeling it weaken me , not seeing it killing me . Because I didn’t feel it grow inside me , use me , as it’s host for my endless amounts of love and life I didn’t feel it become a part of me , I’m not sure which one it was , because I didn’t know how to differentiate it from me Because it took over my thoughts , made me crave things I’ve never thought of  before Because it infected every single one of my cells with this disease called love Maybe it was just a bacteria . after all it did make me sick to my stomach Butterflies paired with a little histeria I believe he could take what was mine and make it his Could build a resistance to all my attacks and destroy all my bounderies Lay skin to skin preparing , waiting , starving to take it all , consume me , infect me
Ever since the aftermath is a as tedious process as the sickness was
