You Own Me

Obsession can ruin a life

You own me
You command me
You control me
You have me

I am yours
I am addicted
I am obsessed
I am tangled 

The way it feels
The way I say no
The way we feel after
The crash of a drug

We both know
That it's a problem
That it's no good
It won't last

Yet here we are
Clung together 
Wrapped in linen
Tearing Away

Very nicely written.

God can I relate to this poem haha. I agree with your description line up top "Obsession can ruin a life." And you've described obsession just right in this.

sounds like a song to me

wow, powerful and formulated form brings the meaning to its global height
of intention, exposure to the elements, essense of an epic loss of foresight,
great work Lawrence, the reader can feel the decisive moment of
indignation, you have expression in the palm of your hand, excellent ^_^

I think this is a good poem.

Addiction, powerful just as your words here. I can respect honesty in this piece and the unmasking of vulnerability. Well written. Write on.
