Marea Johnson - Parasite

Burrowing quickly
into my skin
I know what you want
I know where you've been.

Starving for food
and needed attention
You contaminate me
with your lethal infection.

Visiting me
without invitation
Taking from me
without hesitation.

Wanting the life
that pumped through my veins
You latched onto me
again and again.

And now that you've left me
with nothing to give
You'll find a new host
upon which to live.

And although you've left me
parched, and depleted
You won't be leaving me
sad, down and defeated.

Cuz I have a secret
you're soon to discover
I put a little something
in your food my dear lover.

And not long from now
you blood sucking tic
You'll be down on your knees
wrenching and sick.

So good riddens to you
you've had your last bite
Goodbye and sleep well
my sweet parasite.
