A Runny Nose

You're annoying.

You make it hard to breathe.

Almost like I'm sprinting.

But it's my heart that's sprinting.

You're messy.

Like my love life.

Don't laugh, it's not that funny.

It's definitely not funny.

When you're here,

I can't remember how it was without you.

To breathe freely.

A breath of fresh air.

But you'll eventually leave.

Just like the others.

After all, my cold has more symptoms

than just a runny nose.

A headache, sore throat, muscle pain,

I have more problems besides you.

Taxes, social inequality,

Racial divide, and much more to say "adieu" to

I have 99 problems

And you're not 1 of them

You stupid runny nose.
