    Cruel Obsession (poem)
    I wrote this poem today while sitting in the woods smoking and drinking with my friends. It is reflective of the last week of my life. I hope you like it..

    Hot August night
    No expectations but chance
    My precious and perfect one lands in my hands
    We dance and forget the existence of time

    Heartbreak was that intangible state
    I mocked and never believed
    Now I am sad and broken
    I can believe it

    One final kiss and you tell me it's time
    I stroll into the steamy streets
    Your red bite is fresh and lingers on my neck
    I force myself into the night and leave you, darling

    Missing somebody always hurts
    But to miss yet know the missed one
    Is the one whom you will see again never again
    Makes for emptiness so powerful it feels like disease

    You make my heart beat fast
    You make my palms sweat
    Sometimes your heart knows things your mind can't explain
    My heart doesn't race for anyone else

    A week away and every step is a step further
    Temporally and spatially away from your being
    The pain I feel as I hurtle further away in time
    Leaves a hole in my heart as though you took something

    How could I fall for somebody with this intensity
    But the cruel fate is that we could not be in this life
    In a parallel world we would be so beautiful
    For now you are a sickness of my mind
    And this life tried to remedy your absence with my pain

    Hold me hard against you before we go

    I wouldn't say it was romantic, but lustful.

    Considering you wrote this just casually while you were out with some friends i'd say that it is pretty good .

    Could you try adding capital letters? Or would that be too difficult for you?

    Nah it doesn't. Samuel Taylor Coleridge wrote his best works on opium. You could say the same for many of the other Romantic poets. That's a very narrow minded view dude.

    Are you completely retarded? Smoking in a wood is a fire hazard. Smoking at all shows you to be an ill disciplined person but smoking in a wood is ignorant and evil.

    My computer in not a fire hazard it is made with cooling mechanisms to stop it getting overheated. I think you should learn to use punctuation. Also is tree hugger supposed to be an insult, I take it as a compliment. I love nature and I am not a parasite like you

    lol i don't really think many fires have been created in the UK by smoking in a wood. your concern for the environment is kinda admirable though, despite your silliness x

    I agree humans are parasites but me personally much less than you. I recycle, pick up other peoples litter with a litterpick and I don't drive and it annoys me off when some little ****, not only smokes but smokes in the woods and then writes a piss poor poem in an attempt to get attention. People like that are oxyge thiefs.

    pfft :unimpressed: ..what makes you think that i'm more of a parasite than you? ..i recycle and pick up litter too (by hand, unlike you).. and i dont drive either.. and also i'm a nudist and i've learnt to levitate instead of walking so that i don't accidentally step on any living organisms.. also i don't eat food and photosynthesise instead... and on weekends i like to swim out into the ocean to free dolphins which get trapped in plastic bags.. and also i sing to the plankton at my local harbour every tuesday.

    :hoppy: beat that :hoppy:
