Just a poem about one of the leading deadly diseases we see today.
Silent Thing







Why can’t we stop this THING or THINGS?

Pain, suffering, and sorrow are all it brings?

I used to say “It will never happen to me.”

Well it did. This shit is real, can’t you see?

It can happen to you, your friends, family or anyone.

Something about this tragedy desperately needs to be done!

Let’s all make an effort to stop this spread,

Before any more of our loved ones end up dead.

Help by protecting yourself and others.

Support those who have lost friends and even lovers.

No, this doesn’t just apply to the “gay population”

It includes those who participate in “Straight” procreation.

This THING is killing millions around the world,

Some of those who we truly loved and adored.

Brothers, sisters, children, parents and friends

Let us come and work together in hope that this ends.

So please protect yourself, friends and family

How? Go get tested every six months or at least annua
lly.
