You Own Me

You Own Me

A Poem by Michelle Tarnowski
"

You haunt me in my dreams moving just beyond my grasp, yet I am always within yours....

"

Am I crazy or obsessed?

I choose obsessed because crazy

would mean you might not exist.

That would be more than I could bear.

You haunt me in my dreams

moving just beyond my grasp,

yet I am always within yours.

Your words move through my days

persisting in my thoughts,

captivating my mind with visions of you

like a shadow only I am aware of.

No, not like a shadow, like a light.

A light burning down on me

creating the shadow

that moves with me

where ever I go

Two separate entities creating something new

that bridges the waking world with the night.

You are a circle without end surrounding my heart

that expands with each new element you add.

A Crescendo of emotion washing over me

like waves breaking over the rocks,

unyielding in their grasp.

You own me
