I feel,
Signs of this cancer coming on.
Waking up in a pool of sweat.
Wondering if you’re still next to me.
My heart leaks,
Rivers of lust begin to pour from me.
Wanting nothing more than to have you
Out of my head and under my sheets.
My mind,
Is filled from your disease.
I’m weak in the knees and with one touch,
I fall.
For you.
Again and again.
I fear,
Proof that this cancer is on its way.
It’s taking a hold of me.
With the words on the tip of my tongue
I can’t deny the attention.
I will,
Pray that you see how much I care.
When you see me lying there,
How can you think otherwise?
I know,
That you’ve been hurt so many times before.
I can ease the pain with words.
The ones you’ve heard them say but never meant.
Well I do.
I feel,
Signs of this illness seeping through.
Believe me dear I mean what I do.
Just trust your heart,
It’s trying to heal too.
