Obsessed
Was he cheating?..or was she just obsessed.
Enjoy the twist at the end!!
OBSESSED
She was solicitous.
She always gave him praise.
Was this the time she caught him?
Is this the time he stays?
Was that him across the street?
Why does he leave me all the time.?
Can I catch him in the act?
I am his and he is mine.
"Why won't he answer my calls?
We should be together, I agree.
Her mind was stressed
I must confess.
She was breaking..can't you see.
She could be quite amiable.
At times her decorum was just right.
She smiled at him all the time.
Deciding he was Mr. Right.
This time she couldn't take it.
She said with pure conviction.
"If I can't have him to myself.."
He was her addiction.
She would follow him for days.
She would talk to him all night.
Only in her head..
obsessed thoughts would ignite.
He finally figured it out.
He wasn't going crazy.
Who is this lady that follows me?
His memory was hazy.
As he was walking down the sidewalk.
He abruptly crossed the street.
He stepped into an ally.
They were finally going to meet.
He grabbed her from the sidewalk.
He pulled her in the door.
She was so surprised.
She fell down on the floor.
"Tell me who you are?
Why do you follow me
..all the time?
What's your name?
Where do you live?
You know this is a crime!"
"Don't you know that your my boy-friend?
Why? Don't you recognize me dear?"
His face collapsed.
Time had lapsed.
To him it was quite clear.
"I think that you need help.
Listen to me Lady..
The things you do.
I don't know you!
You're acting really shady."
The door it opened..
and they took her away.
She escaped from the
psycho-ward.
He fell to his knees.
He was finally at ease.
He said, "Thank you..my Sweet Lord."
