Thoughts of her provoke me,
choke me, cloak me,
my soul can barely breathe.
Visions of her torment me,
tempt me, they empty me,
Oh how my body bleeds.
Utterances entrance me,
romance me, take chance with me,
their intent only to deceive.
Animosity surrounds me,
confounds me, abounds in me,
inflicting wounds you can't conceive.
Tasting life evades me,
shades me, downgrades me,
will it ever be mine to retrieve?
