Obsession

I spend all my time thinking about him until I see him face to face

and suddenly he is absolutely repulsive

I can’t look at him anymore

I find all his bad qualities

His bad habits when performing

Mistakes

And I wonder why I loved him

But my feelings don’t change a whit

because when he leaves I can’t bear to be separated from him

Not see him for another day, another week

And I feel a dagger in my heart

A kick when I’m sprawled out on the floor, bleeding

As he walks down the stairs with her

They hold hands in their minds

for even though they do not touch I can feel their bodies connect

Never think he is staring at you

Across the room

Unless it is obvious

Wow...so much feeling in this poem. "The hold hands in their minds, for even though thy do not touch I can feel their bodies connect"...I love this wording.
