Parasite

This poem is inspired by a physical condition that I have to deal with everyday that feels like it will never end and that it's a parasite all over my body.

Suck me dry

Cover me up

Never let me go

Take away my will to live

Never leave me alone

No matter how hard I fight

Suck my blood

Suck my tears

Inflict pain all over

You are the parasite

You are my parasite

I am your slave

Cover me in scars

Cover me in bubbles

Cover me in red

Cover me in everything, but your parasite

[John the Baptist]

This one certainly reflects a grim situation. I can't imagine what this malady must be, but it is a chronic condition that appears to be overwhelming. Besides medical resources, those of the spirit must also be sought.
