Flow- An Anthology

Love's a Disease

Love's a disease

One that I was immune to

Before my resolve ceased

When I got to know you.

All around me, I had built the walls

Which were wrecked by you ruthlessly,

I tried hard not to fall

But you pulled me down smoothly.

You laid your eyes on me

And decided I'm worth the chase,

Sneaked into the treasury,

Robbed my heart, smashing it's vulnerable case.

Now I don't know what's gravity; 

It always feels like outer space.

Never before have I felt this burning desire

To call someone only mine.

This isn't a spark,darling,It's a fire,

'Cause talking with you can stop time.

I know not how you do this

But I fiercely wish that you feel the same;

For only then can you experience

The alluring effect of this flame.

When you're away,

It's a feeling of listlessness

And when you come by,

It transforms into weightlessness.

I'm not afraid of love,

I'm scared of getting hurt.

But it's still what I chose,

Willingly risking my (until now guarded) heart.

It doesn't matter if I'm not your first

But I'd give anything to be your last.

Love's a disease

And now I'm infected.

You can either save me

Or we jump into this pit together.
