To Die For

Like the black plague
You came into my life
Paralysing every part of my body
But my heart.

An epidemic I never wished for
An epidemic I could have never intended for myself
Or anyone else.
An epidemic I watch growing inside me
An epidemic I carry with me
and contain others with
While containing myself from the cure
Merely to keep the momentum between
love and death alive by killing
Myself
For living without you.
