My Savior by ~catnipkitty:iconcatnipkitty:

Categories Literature > Poetry > Humor > Open


Sinuses clog,
Slowly suffocating me
In my sleep

Coughing, choking,
Hacking out my lungs
In my dreams

Mucus oozes down
The back of my throat,
Turning it raw,
Making it hurt

Lying here in bed
Wallowing in pain,
Waiting for a hero
To make me well again

Vaporub! Vaporub!
Rushes to save me,
Like a knight in
Shining armor
It attacks that
Wicked cough
And smites my
Choked sinuses

The air rushes
Into my lungs,
Accompanied by
The wonderful aroma
Of menthol, camphor,
And eucalyptus oil

Vaporub! Vaporub!
I love you so!

Vaporub! Vaporub!
You soothe my soul!

Ok, I know this is a very strange, weird, awkward, etc. poem. I wrote it sometime last month when I was sick......I got the idea from AshleyLeopard (who also wrote a poem about vaporub: Ode to Vaporub)!! :D Hope you like it, even though it's very non-sequiter! :XD:

Love makes us lose ourselves in it.
It's purity and completeness...we're the real us, when in love."

If you expect the unexpected, doesn't that make the unexpected, the expected?

There are only a few perfect people in the world. All the rest are right handed!

Go meet some cool cats who write! --> [link]

I'd break the back of love for you.


Put me down for a lifetime success
Give me credit, I'll find ways of paying.
