Obsession

A possession that will never be mine
    The hunger consumes me more than you know 

My heart longs to be with yours
    But my brain is now torn 

I know I will never be able to taste your lips
    Never be able to feel your hair

The desperation fills my eyes
    So much I slowly begin to cry

Obsession is the word I feel    
    You have changed me, cursed me, killed,.... Me

What do I do?
    You have left my side

To choose her,... She will never know you pain
    She will never know your heart

If you could I would hope
You have my obsession too

Because once upon a time
I still love you,
