Obsessed

AGAIN…

I find myself drawn to you and ask myself, WHY?
WHY AM I SO OBSESSED WITH YOU?????

I search my soul, looking for an answer, but none comes. 
There seems to be no rhyme or reason whatsoever for this COMPULSIVE behavior.
Yet!  Knowing this doesn’t seem to stop me. 
It would appear that I have no will of my own. 
Could it be I am possessed?

Yes!  I realize you have never given me reason to think you are interested in me,
 Other than the fact you exist. 
 And when I look at you… you with that blank look on your face
Devoid of any emotion
 IT TURNS ME ON!!!!

I am consumed with thoughts of RAVISHING you
And before I know it…   
I have FORCED myself on you
Covered every inch of your body with my passion
Until…I am totally SPENT.

Afterwards…I feel no remorse for what I have done.
Left you lying there drenched in black sweat…the DNA of my soul
That will surely expose me for who I am….
A WRITER…
Who in a fit of passion…RAVISHED…an EMPTY PAGE

Wonderfully fulfilling the letting out on paper, eh? This is marvelous, Lainie. You speak of that area of human thought that, for most, is in the'secret' place. I think everyone has that place. Wonderful that it can be let out on paper. Love, daver
