The Inner-Torture of Love

It is true, I’ve been so delusional Straying away from reality Desperation clouds my mind, and so does the lust It is evident I refuse to let go My attraction for you will not let it I need to search for the words and try again To free my tainted heart To escape the void of love that is aching If possible can I be given something new I’m tired of standing motionless Being caught in a parade of devoted inner-torture Why can’t I see out of this tunnel vison I want her, please her I’m thinking too much I’m fantasying too much I’m hurting too much All because I want to gaze at her beauty Hold her Be with her This must burn, let the ashes of this love scatter So I may leave with a clear continence
