The Bug Can’t Bug Me, Now

He chased me down

Followed me home

And hung around

For I dared to roam

An evil little parasite

His invasion was sinister

He found me on my flight

No meds could I administer

For what he did to my mood

Invading my bed

The negativity that he brewed

In my confounded head

He attacked my guts

But I was physically tough

So my partner he disrupts

It worked; but not enough

Lost in his perplexing snare

Reunion delight not to enjoy

We napped, read, tried not to care

To bag the bug's every employ

And though we fought back

Against this nasty bug’s bite

Getting back on track

Dared our love’s might

Once the venom was no longer

And fully dissipated

We proved that we are stronger

Now it’s a love bug - satiated
