Obsession
Obsession was a song that got to me
reminding me of what I had gone through,
the first time feelings gushed as poetry!
Even though that song did not exactly
describe my circumstance, some parts rang true.
Obsession was a song that got to me.
A rare and gorgeous butterfly was he -
that dark-eyed man who into my life flew
the first time feelings gushed as poetry!
I fell so hard and was too blind to see
the damage to my young heart he could do.
Obsession was a song that got to me.
I was a rose and he – a honey bee.
He came on strong. From me came something new -
the first time feelings gushed as poetry!
Although a scoundrel he turned out to be,
I love the song which still can make me blue.
Obsession was a song that got to me -
the first time feelings gushed as poetry!
April 24, 2017 for the "Your Favorite Song Contest" of Alexis Y.
Note: I cannot narrow down to a favorite song, but for the 80's decade and for the feelings the song evoked in me, Obsession is a fave!
