I Want Your Disease

Share with me,

Your sickness, love

I’ll keep it safe in my chest for you

The gross,

The slime, the pestilence you keep

Festering away inside of you

Promise not to shield me from it

For how could I fear

The intoxicating thrill

Of knowing, of having,

Of being consumed

By you

Let it break me, love

For there is beauty in brokenness

And when I fall to pieces

I’ll think only

Of how happy I am to have you

This much closer
