The Cycle

Still to this day,
The consequences of knowing you effects me.
Just when my debt is about to be paid,
You cause an inflammation.

Spreading so very rapidly,
My depression and self-pity destroys what I have built.
Trying to move forward, giving you what I believe you want,
Only to be ravaged again.
