Contagious

Time is not on our side.

We drift away with each tic of the clock.

Our memories fading away with each dawn of the sun.

Loosing you to the shadows we were running from.   

You were chasing me and not running so the shadows consumed you.

I left a taste in your mouth that you can never forget. So sour sweet.

 No matter how many oceans you cross. How.many valleys and mountains you pass.

No one can be like me and we both know that.

I'm Contagious.

A narcotic drug you keep feeding on.

I am the strong energy that has grasped your heart.

You were bleeding in my silence, my grasp so fatal.

Anything to be near me, you forgot your importance. 

I was that perfect person.

I was the warp in your personality that you refused to notice. 

I was the beautiful problem you never solved. You just sat and steered. Feeling you owned me. But you were wrong.

When the mist came we danced around. With confidence you felt me dancing with you. But I was gone.

You said I was too good to be true and so I was.

I vanished.

Being only an illusion. 

A mi-raj.

Did I really exist?
