Death Virus

Would you believe 
If I say I am a disease 
And long ago I killed the sense which 
Used to tell you that you are alive?  
Though still you walk and do the chores of life 
But you do not know that in reality 
You are dead! 

A sense works against a sense
Once I suffered from that disease  
Now in me I taste death 
While I remain alive! 
Or play like a living 
While I went  dead !
