Obsession

Once a upon a time…


It all started with innocent glance;
The attraction was immediate, ineluctable.
There were of course the mandatory cute little butterflies,
fluttering within your stomach.
This soon blossomed into love, and escalating passions.

Oh I have so much love to give!

But unrequited love is not a pretty thing folks.
Your raging passion is cruelly doused
By your Love’s cold indifference.
It then manifests itself as a desperate desire,
To possess him completely,
body and soul…

Creeping up on you like concrete shadows,
Enveloping your mind and heart in the seductive haze
Of an all consuming obsidian obsession,
Possessing insuperable darkness;
Until all you are is a mordant void,
And you finally surrender,
To this overwhelming blackness…

Yes!

You wake up to the coppery tang of blood,
Not yours- strangely enough.
Your eyes focus on his unblinking ones.
You realize that something is not quite right…

That’s better.

His features now twisted into a grotesque smile,
You cuddle comfortably in his not so warm embrace.

And they both lived happily ever after.

Another morbid and macabre piece by yours truly.Well... as you can clearly see I'm a cynic when it comes to love matters. Call me weird but I actually thought this was funny ;)
