Obsessed
My heart stabs my chest, Throbbing, pulsing, aching, raw, Your smile feeds my veins. You exist in me, Carved into my skin, my thoughts, I breathe in your name. Your scent wraps my throat, Tight like fingers, like a noose, I choke on desire. I've memorized you. The way you move, how you sleep, I know you better. At night, I lean close, Your lips slightly parted, soft, I trace them with eyes. That man was rude. He screamed, so I made him stop His silence is ours A lock of your hair, A sacred piece of your flesh It rests on my tongue I need you to breathe, Without you, I am hollow, A husk, a shadow. ...A husk, a shadow... You understand, right? The ties, they’re not to hurt you. They keep you with me. No one will find us. The world is ugly, it rots. I saved you from it. You love me, don’t you?
