This poem is about someone who attempts to help his girlfriend through her drug addiction. However, she is not appreciative, gives him the could shoulder treating him badly and telling him to get lost. As a result, he is plagued by her problem..thus the title "Problem's plague". As he moves on with his life without her he cannot forgive her for the way she treated him. They drift from each other as if they were dead.
Never had a soul ever vanished unkind
until she perished away from me;
Fallen from the edge of this Earth
she had arisen a problem's plague.
Not a friendly face nor a tender kiss
made this planet a heavenly place to live;
Living without, yet not a care,
my heart was unwilling to forgive.
