Obsession

Obsession



By J Newton



You gave me love.

You took it back.

You carried me

Then let me fall.

You promised truth

But lied instead

And I adored you through it all.



You taught me heat

Then turned so cold.

You watched me melt

While you were ice.

You kissed the tears

You helped create.

I was your willing sacrifice.



You drank my soul

Then spat it back.

You called me Queen

Then burned my throne.

Still, in this pool

Of black desire

We drowned together, not alone.
