Disease lurks deep

It’s host to keep

Your constant contact is how it eats

It feeds within

Beneath your skin

You can’t see the evil sickness grin

Panic spreads

As we bury dead

Keeps on thriving as we count our beds

There is no cure

We must endure

Left in the wake

Of this outbreak

Stores run dry

Families cry

The separation drives apart good byes

Isolate to live

Time you give

You beg for this disease to forgive

Supplies run short

The sick deport

The world turns on fed by life support

There is no cure

We must endure

Left in the wake

Of this outbreak

Pull the plug

There is no drug

The people here crushed like a bug

A simple strain

Disease will reign

The sickness won a planet gained

A story told

Alone and cold

The outbreak now has taken hold
