Infection

Folder: 
2010

Let me be Heaven bound,
A sweet, exalted breath,
As weightless as the sky,
And I stumble,
Trying to scrape the decaying words
Off of my tongue.

Please don't writhe within my bones.

I am Eternally,
Irrevocably alone.

And suddenly, a realization,
That you are exactly the same,
As you have always been,
But somehow you just know,
How to make me immortal.

But,

I don't want to bear it,
I don't remember how,
I've been,
Desensitized.

Could you help me learn?
Recover?

Me beloved,
I don't want to be crushed,
By your treacherous wave,
I'm already way in over my head,
I'm drowning.

And,

I don't want to forever remain the ashes,
Of the fire that once burned for her.

And,

I don't think you understand,
That I am sick,
And you have infected me.
