Illness

Health knows sickness,
It kills as it heals,
Giving life to death,
Health disappears,
When the sickness is gone,
No one cares but they get so obsessed,
Healthy living becomes an illness,
No one knows what it means,
And they know all too much,
Living for death,
And dying to live.

The author's comments:
This is a paradox poem that i wrote about society today and how they dont make sense. Everyone is too focused on things that dont matter and are wasting their lives away while people who can't do the things they want have to rot away from sickness.
