Infection
My heart beats fast, my body aches,
A fever runs hot, then chills my bones,
I can’t shake this shiver, I long for ease,
But it’s a feeling, a feeling of you that won’t leave.
You’re stuck in me, I can’t let go,
Just pain, a constant ache that flows.
I struggle for breath, my mind in a spin,
Thinking of you, where have you been?
You promised always, but you’re gone,
You lied, broke me over and over,
Like a nightmare I can’t escape,
A never-ending cycle, a constant tape.
I’ve tried to heal, but the wounds stay,
Every step forward, ten steps back,
I’m at the end, lost and alone,
A place I don’t recognize, where you and I have flown.
One day, strangers we may be,
But the love we shared will always see,
A memory of what once was,
And what could have been, forever because.
