Virus
I have no date of birth, nor do I have any place of birth.
I flow freely & no boundaries can contain me.
I am powerful & spread like wild epidemic
Virus that spread me reside in idle minds.
I give sleepless nights. I make many feel guilty.
I make many hide their faces. I shake confidence of many.
I give heartburns & I break hearts.
I break relationships. I ruin careers.
I make many shed tears.
Goal focused activity & creativity are my foes.
Best way to make me powerless is to ignore me.
They may call me
Rumor,
Scandal,
Hearsay or just chit-chat.
GOSSIP is my name.

Oh what a perfect way to describe epidemic, and the worse kind of epidemic! The cure is also perfect!

These are often epidemic. Too bad more love isn't epidemic.
Well done. Well said.
Thank you.
Excellent job! I loved it!
You have put that down in a terrific way :) Best to ignore all those rumors and they lose their power! :)
WOW! That was good- and SO very true!
You have written about gossip in such an clever way! I truly enjoyed this.
Gossip can take on a life of its own!
A virus prevalent in society since ages.
Nicely put......
