virus

This should be destroying me, from the inside out

But I’m learning to take whatever I can

You shake at the sound of my voice

And you must think  I’m a terrible person

I guess I am

Can’t we just call it even?

I’ll touch you wherever you want me to

Not allowing me to go any deeper

But I am a virus, you’ll see

If waiting is wishing then I’ve got my fingers crossed



I’ve got a sloppy memory

As do you, my love

But I heard you let go and all thanks to me

Tomorrow you want the dust to settle

Tomorrow I want you to marry me

We both struggle in such opposite ways

I  try to hold onto a liquid that you barely allow me to feel

You try to let go of  everything I bring out in you
