Sickness

They didn\'t say its name
In fact they have never spoken
Of the sickness they were all certain
Was the thing which made her broken

Broken like a polluted sky
On a summer day with bright blue lie
Sick like the victim’s plea
As she falls from grace on bended knee

In sterile corridor there was a whisper
From white coated learn-ed men
They had dealt with her kind before
Tempted when her smile crept in

Creeping like a locker room leech
Seeking something out of reach
Sucking blood to cure disease
Sickness cured the sick to please

And so she drew upon her face
A picture full of intriguing grace
She realised the only way sickness to beat
Was to simply give way and admit defeat

Defeated like the men in white coats?
Or defeated like the ballon that floats?
Far from where the crowd is mad
And there’s no room for good or bad
