Love Poem: Obsession

Written by: Larry Belt

Obsession

I can no longer think, eat or sleep
Even my thoughts seem to stutter
Captivated by your radiant smile
And by every word that you utter

I'm trapped by my wishful thinking
Wishing you will someday be mine
I see visions of happy endings
That were formed from Heaven's design

My love for you has become malignant
Growing stronger each waking day
I no longer have a sense of direction
Your perfection causes my reason to stray

The person I was has somehow vanished
Tomorrow's become where ever you lead
My wants and desires have all disappeared
And filled with this thing that I need

I'm lost in a world that no longer matters
And this is my heart's true confession
I'm not me and you're no longer you
You're simply my heart's obsession
