My Bitter-Sweet Obsession

This is for you again Richie! I haven't written anything about him in a long time & I missed him a lot in school today & was feeling lovey. So I came up with this...I really do feel this way about him, even though he doesn't believe me sometimes h

 

Every song in my head reminds me of you.

Everything around me makes me think of you.

It’s like a bitter-sweet obsession.

But it’s pushing me into repression.

Friends are forgotten & left behind.

Relationships fade & decay like a vine.

Everything blurs around me but you.

You really have no idea what you can do.

The color red for the blood in your veins.

A golden hue for the skin that it stains.

A slash of white for the smile on your face.

The touch of your hands as we fall from grace.

 

Your love’s destroying me completely,

But I’ve never felt better.

Feel how much you mean to me,

In every printed letter.

 

Just one kiss from you can knock me down.

A touch can send me to the ground.

This is so wrong but it feels so right.

It’s killing me but I can’t put up a fight.

I wouldn’t change a thing about this situation.

I’m hating & loving this infatuation.

Are you aware of the power you commend?

You can make me sit or force me to stand.

This is probably getting bad for me.

Eyes opened or closed, you’re all that I see.

Every scar, every bone, every part of you.

Everything about you makes me want you!

 

You’re love’s destroying me completely,

But I’ve never felt better.

Feel how much you mean to me,

In every printed letter.
