*cough* 

I am ill

coughing fits, sneezing, runny nose, chills.

The medicine I've been taking is not working very well, 

This virus I have is putting me through hell. 


*sneezes* 

"Bless you!" my little sister said

I wrap up in a blanket and crawl into bed. 

I cannot breathe well, I can't properly speak, 

When I talk my voice has an odd creak. 

Like an old door with a rusty hinge.

I let out a hard wheeze which makes me cringe. 


WebMD says I'm near death.

Oh dear god. 

This might be my last breath. 

"No." I say.

This is just a cold. 

Ew, mucus.

A nasty substance.

A contagious grime, making me unsafe to kiss. 

I feel disgusting, with crumpled tissues beside me.

Taking antibiotics and drinking tea. 

*cough* *cough*
