he let his bright smile fade away
hidden behind storm clouds and chapped lips
laying in his bed for hours on end
wishing all the problems would just go away
he let it tear up his heart
he tried to carry all the weight on his own, but it was too heavy
he isnt weak though,
contrary to popular belief
the weight just became too overbearing after holding it alone all this time
he dreams about a happy life
a life he used to think he had
before he got a virus that ruined his life forever
his heart was working to hard to handle this too
day by day it chipped away,
forcing it to work harder and harder to keep him alive
love is deadly
but those who love are not weak
they are the strongest people alive
because this is a virus that needs more than medication to heal
