Possession
Convoluted and contrived,
derived from the smallest transgression;
you believe you became my possession.
This is hard to bare, this mark...
a drama in which virtues and vices embark.
A senseless obsession,
propelled by
accepting divine presence to: "give all to love, obey thy heart."
Projecting bad relationships onto me, instead you leave:
leaving me faceless in your mind, without identity.
With your fabricated fears of the possibilities of infidelity,
widening the already literal gap - no empathy.
A single text to end it all - sufficed in your mind.
Possessions sometimes get thrown out without explanation.
It feels like history is repeating itself.
When words with meaning fall short of what I mean to say,
it's like the delivery of expression is caught between two chasms far apart.
Like two separate languages, two foreign tongues.
*These chasms are too great, too far apart.
