Love Poem: Obsessed

Obsessed

We used to hang out, I used to be your friend
But that all changed when I started dating him
You started texting him and calling him constantly
You followed him and stalked him obsessively
The girl I used to know wasn’t like that
But I guess a crush on a guy can change that

Telling him you love him, trying to get him again
You think you can do that, and call me your friend?
You’re a man stealer, nothing more than that
Why don’t you get a life, move on, and scat
He doesn’t love you, how plain can it be?
Why else would he tell you he loves me?

You lie to me and deny that you love him to cover the truth
And you’ve fooled yourself into thinking he loves you too
You tell me that you don’t want him so I’ll let down my guard
But when I’m gone you step your game up and flirt with him hard
You can do what you want, with who you want, I don’t really care
But you can’t have the man I love, he’s the one thing I won’t share

You think you’re in love, when you’re really just obsessed
I understand you’re lonely, but won’t you give it a rest?
He’s not a prize, but you think it’s a game you can win
I’d like to still be friend, but you have to stop chasing him
I don’t want to fight with you, back and forth, day after day
But you have to leave him alone first, there’s no other way
