Obsession

Obsession creates an emotional state Influences the soul with no chance of escape , People and places we attempt to evade A sequence of energy cosmically made , A key to one's heart that's universally shared Attractions so strong its source no one dares , To question a power from deep below ground A reflection whose light mirrors rhythm and sound , So count your blessings for those who seem rare The lessons they teach you are part of love's care , To open a window of understanding to share Her blessings and warmth & energetically rare , A pulsating heartbeat shared between one Understanding that shines bright like the sun. ©2023AlanShapiro

'An obsession you never wish to escape. ' A pulsating heartbeat shared between one ' This thought is so dreamy and romantic. My kind of poetry, indeed. Your words have left me completely breathless. :) Brandy

You write such passionate poetry ( Purpose being, to open and then see The Heart of a Rose, and the Soul of me ) - such a beautiful completion to such an emotionally capturing poem ! Alan
