This Cruel Love


Sometimes love burns so hot
In your veins that it consumes
All rational thought.
You become a walking shell
That can no longer function
Without your significant other
Whispering into your soul,
Telling your heart to beat.

MY OBSESSION IS MY LOVE

Why do I always find myself thinking of you?
From dawn through the day to dusk
The sleepless nights are my best
I twist and turn through lonely nights
Tormented soul tortured inside
But you don’t even know something that is true
That right now I am cursed with the desire of u

The interesting thing about this
Is that you don’t have a clue
That you are mine inside my head
But outside, you are you
Inside my head, I do what I want
And so you’re mine without a choice
I like it better inside my mind because
Outside my head, you’re on your own
You speak with your own voice
Inside my head, you are tied down
Because I won't let you go

It bothers me to see you with someone else
I guess you'd say it's jealousy
I stayed awake last night
Thought about what to do to make it right
I try to express how I feel about you and
The only words I can think of or ever find is
I’m obsessed with you

I desire to be with you.
I miss you.
I feel lonely
When I can't see you.
I am obsessed with you,
Fascinated by you,
Infatuated with you.
I hunger for your taste, your smell
The feel of your soul touching mine.

Why Does Your Heart Hurt...When You Love Someone


 She loved him, 
And her heart was breaking.
If she had known
How much it hurts to love someone,
She never would have
Given away her heart.
But it wasn't a question of giving
as much as falling.

When your throat starts to burn,
And your heartbeat speeds up,
When your stomach tightens,
And your lungs close up,
When your tears rush to your eyes 
Faster than you ever dreamed possible,
That's the worst pain you will ever feel,
That's your heart breaking.

To burn with desire 
And keep quiet about it 
Is the greatest punishment 
We can bring it on ourselves.

Unrequited love does not die; 
It's only beaten down 
To a secret place where 
It hides, curled and wounded. 
For some unfortunates, 
It turns bitter and mean, 
And those who come after 
Pay the price for the hurt 
Done by the one who came before.

Intoxicated By You

 



Because of your love
I have lost my sobriety
I am intoxicated 
By the madness of your love
In this fog, I have become 
A stranger  to myself
I'm so drunk
I've lost the way to my house
In the garden
I see only your face
From trees and blossoms
I inhale only your fragrance
Drunk with the ecstasy of love
I can no longer tell the difference
Between drunkard and drink
Between lover and beloved

When you're first interested
Or attracted to someone
It's something you can't control
It doesn't matter their age
Or even if they're interested in you.
You can't change your feelings
Even if you want to.

Without even knowing it,
She had it in her to destroy me
Not Just sexually
But every fiber of my being.
She possessed the ability
To steal my affection,
My smile, my love 
And my everything.
