Obsession

I fall in and out of love
I am born and I die
I travel countries and I fly
I break my heart and I break others’
I live through you, lavish tales in a book

I fall and I get up
I loose and I win
I forgive and I forget
I move and move on
I dance and groove on
I live through you, my little one

You are fiery and you are cool
I cry and I snicker
I am speechless and I talk to you
You shut up and listen
I live through you, my nibbles on a plate

  4. I would really like to know what was going on in your mind when you wrote this. Three seemingly unconnected things so beautifully interwoven in words and verse. My favorite - the second stanza. Really beautifully written.
