Ode to Malady

Oh! how pure and concentrated you can be

Nothing can distract you

Yet you distract everything

You bring out the best of a soul

You dig deep into the Amazon of soul

To let the tears cascade from eyes

You make the throat twitch and turn

You snatch away the courage to express speech

You make the heart weak at first

Whatever you do, you do saturated

Never a tiny bit of compromise

My friendship with you seems never ending

You reappear in my life once in a while

And my heart fills with awe

At how you work so hard

And  get me down in no time

When I felt I managed to be okay a few seconds ago

Every time I decide to hate you

You work wonders for me

You bring me a teardrop

And I carry it my way

In the end, all I can say

Is I am in love with you

For the teardrop emerges as a diamond

Embedded to my soul

Every single time that you touch me

You cast a little of your purity on me

Oh! Thou art great Malady !

weaves through and encompasses pretty much all (most) superficial attributes of the average such anomaly, in a typical flow of uninterrupted life.. but I wonder how you could fall in love with it after all that you endure? wow thought provoking.. such a great read! :)
