Love

a virus that everyone lusts for

a virus that makes you feel such wonderful things

a virus that distracts you,

makes you forget about your problems

your fuck ups

your bad experiences

your life.

Love 

a virus that everyone catches

a virus that makes you do such stupid things

a virus that distracts you,

fucks up your priorities,

your ambitions,

your life.

Is it really worth it?

All those seconds, minutes, hours, and days spent

on that one person?

That person that means the world to you,

that person that makes you feel things, 

do things, 

experience things

you never thought you could. 

That person that could completely change your life;

for the better, 

or for the worse. 

Is it really worth it?

That constant lust for their company,

those memories that invade your mind

every second, minute, and hour of the day

that inevitable heartbreak. 

Be careful what you wish for,

because once that virus infects your thoughts

there is no way of making it leave.
