a new disease

I sit here
Going insane slowly
Wanting to talk to you
But not knowing where to start

Today might be the day
Our minds decay and our hearts melt
I fell for you a while ago
Our relationship sparks

Your words so sweet
Your hands so gentle
Your heart so tender
Your feelings so deep

Text me when you can't sleep
Or when you're in pain
And I'll do the same
We only have each other

Speak to me more and more please
I can't get enough of your messages
They help me make it through this mess called life
And keep me going for tomorrow

"Oh baby, your mind isn't safe for you to touch"

"I wouldn't risk it if I were you"

"How am I supposed to love you if you don't love yourself?"

"The trick is for me to love you so much I forget how much I hate myself"

"So you love me?"

"I love you like stars love the sky. Lost in your galaxy eyes."

"I'll be here to remind you every day how much I love you."

"Oh, I doubt that lover boy."

"As long as you don't doubt yourself."

"How can I do that when I have you?"

"Everyone gets screaming demons at night."

"Even the angels?"

"Especially them."

"I'll cut anyone with my halo."

"It's a good thing I have bandaids."

"Are you a doctor now?"

"As long as you're a patient."

"Being a patient requires me to be sick."

"There's a new disease in our time."

"Oh?"

"They call it love."

*****

Love spreads and sickens us all.
