John Zdrojeski - Virus

Don’t know when we met
I don’t know when the virus came
Suspect you’ve been there all along
Lying in wait
With no escape
For me
With company
Your thoughts race endlessly
And you’re lost in space
In the quiet comfort of your room
The virus keeps you wide awake
Turning tricks
To get its fix
It gets high on all you’ve hidden
You wither and isolate
Told to love you
And embrace you as my own
Virus as child or lover
Least I'm never left alone
You demand attention
You will be known
But I want to burn your body
And I want to stem your plague
Won't take half-measures with a virus
I can never seem to shake
And through force of will
I'd put you on list of kills
And finally breathing easy
I would whistle
As I watched you waste away
But we both know that you’ll survive
No way to vaccinate or put out your lights
Cause you’ll wait me out
You stare me down
From some corner in my mind
And you’ll infect me to the bottom of my being
The minute I avoid your eyes
And will you be there virus
On my dying day?
Not having pulled the trigger
But unrelenting
All the same?
And will you tell me?
Will I know?
Will I have peace
Or will it always
Always
Be this way?
