Obsession

-source-
Desire…
Is it good enough?

….Lights
Silence takes the room hostage
We watched her...
Thick hips
Pink lips
Walking through the hallway.
No smoking allowed
But the haze filled the room
Added to the mystery.
Dancing at her podium
She smiles
She teases
Looking in my direction always
Strobe lights flicker
Imitating my heartbeat
Watching on, at the contortion of her frame
Play, Rewind, Play, Rewind
But never does she stop
Each scene in slow motion
As the curves of her body
Tugs on her dress
Yelling…“Please come save me from myself”
….Seclusion
Pretty little thing
She made me fall in love with her
Made me imagine my fingers seducing her
As she pressed her body against me
She knows I want her
She smiles
She teases
Her fingers followed the vines of her tattooed rose
All the way to the brushless roots
Fiddling at the moisten leaves
Wasn’t this her way of flirtation?
Wasn’t this her subtle invitation?
I enjoyed our conversation
Her body spoke
I listened.
….The agreement.
Yet unconcerned with fighting my temptation
And the rules within the arrangement
I tasted her
Sunk myself deep within her
Forced my weight to restrain her
Repeatedly confession my love for her…
The taste of her sweat stained my memory
The aroma of her perfumed made my senses crazy
Why couldn’t she want me too?
Why couldn’t she see I loved her?
Everything about her
The shade of her lips stick stained my collar
A blemish I would welcome any day
But not today
I didn’t mean to hurt her…
I only wanted her to stop screaming…
I swear I didn’t mean to squeeze her so tightly
I never meant to kill her…
I never meant too.

Desire…
Is it good enough?

Something

There is something
Pacing the floors
The boards creek
The hinges rattle
And there is screeching
From closed doors.
There is something
Standing in the corner
Growing increasingly impatient
Watching and waiting
Focused in your direction
The empty eyes of another.
There is something
In the shadows
Where it came from
No one knows
On your way home
I think it followed.
There is something
Beneath your bed
Inhaling your exhalation
Intoxicated by your fear
Straggly curling fingers
Bushing along your hair.
Something I earlier
Could have shared
It waits till midnight
To claim what is his
You could kill it
But it’s already dead.
