Malaria

Malaria
With it comes an unexplainable headache
Expectedly unexpected cold
And maximum loss of appetite


Malaria
The only harmer capable of nailing down even the strongest 
In its presence,
Shivering even under the hottest weather becomes inevitable

Oh! Malaria!
The balance of the strong and weak
Whose war one cannot fight with weapons of mass destruction
But with adequate rest, capsules, tablets, and injections

Oh malaria!
Thank you for reminding us we need to rest against all odds
