Obsessions

Long standing passions fading into obsessions deep and dark Taking its tolls to possess your soul they leave their mark After much strife little things appear bigger than life And life fades without a fight When confronted with obsessions deep and dark The rains come clean and pure To cleanse the passions and soothe the soul Till nothing remains to heal the marks Of bewitching obsessions possessive and dark One step wrong and all is lost Gone are the sunny days of memories past Your soul is mine so don’t look for me For I am gone into obsessions dreary and dark But be aware I am not the only one All are equal and all are prey Hidden behind that ray of sun obsessions remain When all else is done the darkness comes unbidden Then you are the only one left with obsessions hidden
