Beautiful Obsession

By Julie O'Hara - Author, Poet and Spiritual WarriorPublished 5 months ago 1 min read

[Verse]

I prayed for you when the sun was high

Whispered your name to the empty sky

Every heartbeat screamed your name so loud

But the silence stayed and wrapped me in its shroud

[Verse 2]

You’re the shadow that I can’t outrun

The storm that hides behind the sun

You burn like fire but freeze my soul

This beautiful obsession takes its toll

[Chorus]

You’re my blessing you’re my curse

A melody in my universe

Can’t escape can’t break the chain

Beautiful obsession drives me insane

[Verse 3]

Your face lingers in every dream I weave

In my waking hours it’s hard to breathe

Your touch a ghost that haunts my skin

A battle I lose but long to win

[Bridge]

Oh you’re the ache I crave to feel

The wound that time can never heal

I’d drown in you to taste the pain

Beautiful obsession in my veins

[Chorus]

You’re my blessing you’re my curse

A melody in my universe

Can’t escape can’t break the chain

Beautiful obsession drives me insane
