You dove into it but it wasn’t safe

The crystal droplets splashed on your face

You swallowed something from the lake

That, my friend, was a mistake

You can’t see it but it’s there

Wreaking havoc everywhere

Contamination undetected

Until you’re one of the infected

A sickness

Disease

Catharsis

Decipher me

Explosive

Expulsion

Intestinal

Agony

A parasite

In hiding

The water

Inviting

Cryptic

Traumatic

Sadistic

Sporadic

Something’s changing, first a chill

Then a rumbling; you’re getting ill

Waves of pain fester below

Can’t hold it in, it’s gonna blow

Pale and clammy with sunken eyes

Your tongue is swollen, your lips are dry

Feeling nauseous and unwell

The pain is burning; it feels like Hell

A sickness

Disease

Catharsis

Decipher me

Explosive

Expulsion

Intestinal

Agony

A parasite

In hiding

The water

Inviting

Cryptic

Traumatic

Sadistic

Sporadic
