Obsession
Devotion to my desire

In the shadow I hide
your every move I see
My time I abide
From me you are never free
Did you see me move
Did you hear me sigh
My soul does it soothe
As I watch your life go by
If you stop and look
I am never there
The little things I have took
I treat with loving care
I have a locket of hair divine
And one of your old socks
A log page that you signed
and a package you should have got
An altar to you I keep
A black candle and a flame
To meld with you I seek
Two hearts that beat the same
At work I see what you do
I know when you take a break
I know all you are up to
You’er my god for goodness’ sake
My fantasy you are
To your beauty I am drawn
To watch you from afar
For you how I long
You’ll never know my deeds
Nor the vows I make to you
You’re the only faith I need
To my god I will stay true
You will not my footsteps hear
Nor feel my breath upon your face
You will never know I’m near
I’m bound to your sacred grace
