Love Diagnosis

LOVE DIAGNOSIS She said 911 what’s your emergency, I said my heart, its skipping beats, She said palpitations and l said maybe, She asked if l could drink water and take a deep breath, “Even my stomach feels like it has butterflies ”,l mummered, She said maam,are you sure this is an emergency, I said am trying to figure out the right disease that l have right now, But maybe like you said, it’s not an emergency, I am even glowing, how can that even be an emergency, Rather l feel overwhelmed by something l cannot express, Can that still not be an emergency, I said maam how can one make someone feel like this, Living rent free in someone’s mind, But still said to be innocent until proven guilty, She said maam, can l direct your call to the court room, I asked if that’s where my disease is leading me too, She said maybe,but you can embrace it if you want, What should l embrace, l asked, She said maam,you are in love, Orgh yes l am in love, that defines the disease l am suffering from, A cancer that can never lead me to the bell.
