Infection

A Poem by LlamaLord
"

This has to be one of my best!

"

You think you see the world and all its treasures.
You assume the world has no pain, but simple pleasures.
I wait until the day you fall into the trap of depression.
Wake up, and feel the grasp of tight compression.
Bottled feelings kept within the boundaries of comfort.
Misunderstood assumptions stay with the mind. No effort.
No strength put forth to make yourself realize the truth.
Instead, you keep telling this lie of empty proof.
Learn what it's like to have the devil under your chin.
Making sure the lies and sins you tell never end.
Soon the burning within the heart starts to infect.
You cant take the pain. You fall to surgery and inject.
Inject the toxins of the living. Soon to drive you insane.
Side affects, defects, intersect into your very brain.
Bring forth the forever wounded. What became, of the scar.
The longing memory you hold filled with breakdowns and shame.
See this cut filled with puss and realize, what you truly became.
Cleanse the penetration of broken love and emotions.
Feel the antidote flow and wash away these deep erosions.
The stinging process frees you of ailment and worries.
No longer going back to one you love. Your new heart curious.
Rejecting the offer of short term affection, you find something above.
Someone with the absolute cure to your sickness and the gift of love.
