This is a free-verse poem I wrote about my ex-girlfirend finding someone new.
The virus has struck me with all of its force
I feel like vomiting or clawing out my eyes
But that wouldn’t help, and would only make me cry

I wish the virus would just leave by now
But it doesn’t, it stays to harass me and my thoughts
The virus was fun before it was noticed

I wish the virus was just a amputated limb
Then I couldn’t deny that it was gone
But with a missing limb, I’d have a difficult time
And I wouldn’t be able to light my cigarette

I wish for lots of things within my life
But now I wish the virus would just die
The virus probably infected someone else much worse
And someone has likely infected the virus

How quickly this virus had spread, to my brain and other parts
I hate to admit, it spread to my heart
But that sounds real gay, I assure you it’s not

If I had one wish, the virus would return
Not to stick around, but to slash and burn
Then I wouldn’t miss this disease so much
I’d be better off within myself

I want to vomit all over the floor
When I hear of another virus that infects you through the rear
Such a disgusting virus it sounds
But my old virus will make it better, for the other virus it seems

In any event, I’ll get infected again
I suppose it’s just a matter of when
I hope it happens soon
I’m running out of antibiotics
