caucasian relativity but love nonetheless

simply put,
i am allergic to a world without you in it
much like the difficulty i have imagining
religious men without indoctrination
or
foreign men without suspicion
or
homeless men without blame
i cannot comprehend my life without you
and i realize there are medicines for allergies
convincing in their own right
ampoules of 'plenty of fish in the sea'
tablets of ' casual infidelity'
injections of 'this too shall pass'
but nothing will be able to subdue
the allergen known as
'the absence of you'
and frankly, i don't care to discover such a 'cure'
though i don't doubt it exists

simply put, i miss you
much like ministers miss their savior
or
slaves miss their perfect liberty
or
beggars miss their pride
i cannot seem to grasp a galaxy in which you and i are not the center,
hovering in silent space
as the world spins around us

life can be just as pretty
while you're gone,
blooming with the sound of nature's song
brilliant colors
&
entrancing scents
&
all the 'Ob La Di Ob La Das'
to last eternity
but you see
simply put
those blossoms of beauty are meaningless
when i can
hardly see
barely breathe
&
always have to sneeze

i am allergic to a world without you in it

Ah-choo[se] you!
