Dark Obsession

Invading thoughts it feeds away
Has to have its fill each day
No diversion intervention
Just one focus one intention
Fevered thinking crazed and blurred 
Advice and warnings are not herd
Addiction looming all consuming 
Normal life is not resuming 
Deeper in the dark I go 
Cracks and edges start to show
But still the draw the shining light 
It Makes it worth it makes it right
Blinds me to the hurt and pain
Keeps me craving keeps me sane
I Know Deep down things are wrong
But Cannot stop cannot be strong 
It’s Taken over it has control
It has my heart it has my soul 
It drives me wild it drives my days 
Leaves me lost inside my maze 
All that’s left is my confession 
Save me from this dark obsession..
