Obsession Poems - Poems about Obsession

Enchantress
You arrive like the first word of a language I didn't know I was born to speak— slender as the space between breath and prayer, a rose opening in the dark of my closed mouth. That glance of yours cuts through me clean, the way morning light splits an empty room in half: before you, after you. How do I unknow the weight of your absence? How do I...

Only I bleed her
"The painting is her. Her ruin, my hunger. Every stroke on the canvas carves her deeper into me. I own her screams now." I don't mind saying the ing word now. I’ve been an *******— it doesn't ing matter. The painting on the wall taunts me, staring, silent, brutal— reminding me of her. Of the way she smiled before I crushed it. Of the...

DEEP RUN
Run it deep, run you words through me, You make me feel right, I still recognize myself to be the wrong guy cos I'm still in doubt. The sky is bright in the dark, o my god look at that, Aren't you the reason for bright days and night that I have? Making me to relax, feel good and...

Intensity
The chaos in my heart Won’t allow for anything less Than feeling love amplified Heightened, magnified, buzzing Intensity to the extreme To care for is to cherish To want is to yearn for To miss is to crave I don’t love, I consume I encapsulate and devour I envelope and obsess My soul cannot bear the thought Of living without love...

My mouth loves ice, it's all so nice, I'd hunt it down at any price. I'd suck it until my gums go numb, Chew on it, even if it breaks a tooth or two. ...

Buying was an obsessive hobby of hers She was an avid collector of stuff Her house was filled with unopened boxes She stacked them to the ceiling and used paths Most of her new things were never unpacked Left for distant relatives to discard after her demise...

There is a permanence In every move you make, The steps you take when walking the dog Create the rhythm for a heart that beats Halfway around the world. You are the butterfly whose wings provide The current of air that someone is breathing. Someone who has known you and loved you All their life. There is a...

Heartbound
A cold, silver knife rests on my shaking fingers. I graze the blade across my life; the slicing of it lingers. I push the metal through my skin, right to my chest, it cuts. I have to let the blade in, to remove my outer crust. I peel, I tear, I rip to reveal my blood-stained bones. I put my hand up to my ribs, and...

Premium Member Obsession Of Love
My love for you Is an obsession for me, And your love for me Has become a necessity. I'd be helpless without it, A fish out of water, As sad as Johnny Cash Before the love of June Carter. Your love feeds my soul As the gospel does on Sunday. Without that nurturing care, My soul would wither away, Unable to reach heaven For the salvation of above. My...
