Obsession
Take apart my love for you
Freshly drizzled like morning dew
Hanging scarcely on my pain
Passion forever or your disdain
Who knew this was long term or more than a crush
That this would be a relationship you cannot rush
This fling I say will never end
A surprise you started as a friend
Taking aback by yesterday
Feelings ruttered by this delay
Rueful smiles of joy and laughter
Memories go on and on until after
I love a man who has that kind of will
To make me shutter and give me chills
You do more than that for me
You do more than I can see
Make way to hide your shadows best
The skillful tries I don't detest
Artful duties incompetent of mine
A matter of minutes is on the line
Taking forth from place to place
In staggered film I see your face
The wait is long to see you again
By sun up tomorrow you'll fly right in
You'll kiss me lightly on the cheek
And brush my hair until it's sleek
You'll run my bath before I wake
To lose you now would be my mistake
You'll watch me dearly as I undress
And from afar your eyes will suppress
You'll wait for me to finish my appearance
And be sure not to make an interference
Don't miss those smiles you put upon me
Or hold back jokes you think are funny
Pleasant dreams you give me to sleep on
Are only there until the next day's dawn
Don't hold back words you barely speak
I'll try to stay strong but I'm almost weak
Take heed to what you hear from me
Some glistening hope is what you see
I came too far to go back this way
So hold me close and hear what I say
The moments are short but always sincere
Keeping away the pain and bottled up fear
Your friends don't like me all that much
They talk about me behind your back and such
Tell them to stop because they're your friends
You can't hang out with them or this relationship ends
Who needs them anyway, they are not all that real
They don't care about me or even how you feel
They're not good role models and can be a bad influence
You compared to them does not come to congruence
Away for long you can't keep me guessing
You'll be back. I know. That's why I'm dressing
To begin you think you're all I need
A few things make up of how I succeed
My family's got love for me in more ways than one
I can still hang with them and actually say it was fun
For the many years I've loved you
They have accepted you too
My friends are all judgmental gals
But don't be uptight, they are my pals
If they see you're trying to be a little flirt
They'll come tell me and you'll get hurt
Don't be afraid to whisper in my ear
Or sing to me and keep me near
You know I like the

Don't take away your love from me.

"The Longing"
There is no escaping the inner desire, the need or
the wanting of your touch, simple yet complex in its construction.

You and Me.
The rain hits the window.
I think of you and the time we spent.
That one time when it rained, just you and me.

Fixated
Fixated
I'm unable
To detach
Your lies
From my mind.
It's psychotic
How erotic
The touch of
Your skin
Feels on mine.
Insatiable
