You Are But A Virus Poem by Cyrus Diaz

You are but a virus that sips
Deep into my limbs, into my soul,
You are but a virus that devour my
Being, this mortal being
You enveloped my heart with
Pain, disgust, envy, spite and hatred
I can feel the pain, I can feel the thorn
It’s piercing, it’s agonizing,
I know, no medicine nor chemo
Can afford to heal this cancer
Only me, and me alone has the cure
Only in my hand I have the key,
The key to restore a heart that
Has been torn, and it is with him
The omnipotent I may find peace
And grace that forgiveness,
Mercy and faith may reign
In this soul, in this heart
In this tattered heart.
