Infected

Infected
Erupting from inside
Rumbling deep within
Coughing up anger
Gagging down the lies
Twitch
Aching pustular abscesses
Draining pain
Disease drips from all
Orfices
Spreading its wings
Soaring to find another host
Did I hear you sneeze?

"I am more here than I ever was before. I am more with you than I could have imagined." "I decided I was too soft to last. But then I decided to be even softer." "You keep worrying you're taking up too much space. I wish you'd let yourself be the Milky Way." "Andrea would want you to know that they got their wish. In the end, their heart was covered in stretch marks." My social media feed is filled with Andrea's words. They touched more people than they could ever have imagined.
