in the eyes of a disbeliever

i think i'm allergic to you
    really, you need to stay away
every time you're near
i pick up some weird nervous habit
                                                     usually itching
my throat closes up
                     sometimes i can't even speak
my eyes water
                  because they don't close
     (no, i'm not staring)

but really, you need to keep far from me
         it's starting to really take a toll on my health

    Interesting perspective, Olivia! I love the photo that you have chose to go with it.
    Good poem as well. I like the allergy metaphor. Clever!
