Corrupted Desire

Corrupted Desire

A Poem by Blake Q Hatfield

You're an addiction and I just can't get enough
You've got me thinking about you all the time, I'm lost without you
I need more, I want more, I desire every moment lost in this hunger
One more taste, one more experience is all I'll ever need
 
And when you come around I can never say no to your charms
Just the smell, the scent is enough to send me into a frenzy
I can't control the movement of my lips
I just know that all I can say is yes to everything
A pull that I would love to break but
Not today, and not tomorrow, just another day
 
I can see you in my dreams
You rule the night, and day
How can I break free from this compelling desire
To give you more of my life, more of my soul
Until I can't think, until my existence is all gone
I want to leave you, but even the thought of it feels wrong

Hurt me, cause me pain, take a little more of my soul
And I'll forgive you and still be your sucker
Just return to me, make me feel the things I long for in that moment
Help me picture you as human, as profound, as an answer to all the ails me

And on the day my compulsion for you reaches it's fatal end
Tell me you'll be there as they close my eyes
Look upon me with pity as I go forth to feed the trees
All because I couldn't help myself when you landed on my plate
All because I loved you more than I ever should
