Infected
Contaminated—
By everyone I’ve
ever touched.
Diseased—
By every heart
I’ve ever clutched.
Tainted—
This vessel has
begun to decay.
Soiled—
Excessive damage
I portray.
Inane—
Manic and
ready to bust.
Crazy—
No one left
for me to trust.
Dirty—
My mind and
soul combined.
Infected—
Diseased and
left behind.
