Obsession

Where are you today?

My mind needs to know

In what space you're existing

Who you may be meeting

 

Are you thinking of her?

Time to run through

Every single possible

Unpleasant scenario

 

It doesn't even matter

While you never think of me

My mind can't comprehend

Regardless of reality

 

Here comes the anger

Unnecessary, destructive

Solving absolutely nothing

And it comes just the same

 

I try to escape in sleep

But, wait, here you are

And here comes the pain

And you smile just the same.

 

I never asked for this

I never asked for you to

Waltz into my mind and

Never ever leave.
