Sofia Pedersen Poet Free verse

Toxic

Your words like Poison 
Toxic In the air 
This wasn't for you
You spread like a virus
Funny how this year 
I stopped being immune 
It keeps growing
Faster than I can fumigate
You say you want to help
"Help for my own good"
While you continue to spread 
Your negativity

I just need to breathe 
I forgot the sweet aroma
I forgot the sugar scent 
That comes with
the great outdoors
The beauty that lies ahead
The laughter
That comes with friendship
