What is this obsession
that wakes me at night.
That haunts my dreams.
That fills me with every breath.
What is this desire,
that leaves me weak,
that steals my strength to stand.
To run.
What is this pain
that has hallowed my chest,
and left an abis where my heart would beat,
giving life,
giving hope.
Who are you to have done this to me?
You who slipped through my defenses
stealing my reason,
my sanity,
my love.
