If I could touch, that skin of yours

Breathe in deep, it belongs to me

How can you not see that I worship the ground you walk on?

Waiting for you to go to bed, close your eyes and dream

I'm watching you, dreaming while awake, breathe the breath you breathe.

The waters not as deep as it seems

How it's ice one day, and water the other

Epiphany, I woke up and I realized, I can't breathe without you

Can't bleed the blood through. If you don't know, then no one can have you.

Didn't mean to freeze your soul, but after all, it was meant to be mine.

I forgive, all of your blindness. They don't know, they call my love madness.

Why can't you fall to your knees, say it was meant to be?

Darling, I'm melting my soul for you. Turn to sour, brittle ashes....

The waters not as deep as it seems

How it's ice one day,and water the other

Epiphany, I woke up and realized, I can't breathe without you

Can't bleed the blood through. If you don't know, then no one can have you.

Didn't mean to freeze your soul, but after all, it was meant to be mine

Sour heartache, why can't you just see? My love is perfect, divine.

When I got my haircut on Friday, I was walking home and saw all this ice around me melting and was just thinking, it kind of inspired me to write this poem, I thought the ice was about obsession, whenever I hear the word, "obsession" I think of ice or something white and then the idea sparked into my head, why not write a poem about mania and obsessive love? There really is a thin line between love and obsession, those who are obsessed truly believe that the person they love should be theres and theres alone, that they are only trying to help in one way or another, make someone happy, but somehow obsession always seems to turn inward into lunacy. Love does make a person go mad, but is it love a person is feeling when all they can think about is one person or is it being confused for another emotion? Here's my view on it, even i can become obsessed with the smallest things...items, emotions, people. I had an epiphany that this causes suffering, but the suffering makes you feel alive, like somehow, someway, you can win a persons heart, even if they don't want it to be own or don't know if you are the one fighting for it in the first place.
