It spreads fast <br />From my head to my toes and <br />I’m coughing and moaning <br />and running a fever <br /> <br />Darlin’ lovin’ you’s a chronic condition <br />And I’ve got it bad <br />And one of these days <br />it’s gonna tear me apart <br />Destroy me from the inside <br />out <br /> <br />Can’t eat can’t talk can’t sleep <br />Can’t do anything <br />But just lie here and wait <br />for it to subside <br /> <br />Darlin’ lovin’ you’s a chronic condition <br />And I’ve got it bad <br />And one of these days <br />it’s gonna tear me apart <br />Destroy me from the inside <br />out <br /> <br />But as I wait <br />it comes on faster <br />Spreading to fill <br />the inside of me <br /> <br />My heart’s beating too fast <br />It’s a chronic condition <br />I can see it now <br />Coming on faster now <br />as I think of you <br />I’m dying… <br />Ever <br />So <br />Slowly <br /> <br />Darlin’ lovin’ you’s a chronic condition <br />And I’ve got it bad <br />And one of these days <br />it’s gonna tear me apart <br />Destroy me from the inside <br />out <br /> <br />Won’t ever go away <br />I have nothing to stop it <br />from spreading <br />so fast <br /> <br />Darlin’ lovin’ you’s a chronic condition <br />And I’ve got it bad <br />And one of these days <br />it’s gonna tear me apart <br />Destroy me from the inside <br />out <br /> <br />Takes control of me <br />I follow it blindly <br />Not caring anymore <br />what will happen to me <br /> <br />Darlin’ you know <br />Lovin’ you’s a chronic condition <br />And I’ve got it bad <br />And I’m just waiting it out, <br />waiting for the blow <br />Cause one of these days <br />it’s gonna tear me apart <br />Oh, one of these days <br />it’s gonna kill me<br /><br />Maya Hanson (mye3 poet)<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/chronic-condition/
