Love You To Death


Love You To Death
(a poem of obsession)


A constant pitter-patter—

tiniest of feet

echoes above, the upstairs

hammering at me, driving me to complete insanity

between shouting

whispers include your name,

clouding my worship of you, shading it

transforming desire into dark fixation.

Such attraction,

undermines all sense of right—

hidden between tattered pages

earmarked for certain tragedy

the kind without our hero

no savior, or happy ending

just a lullaby from the grave

chilling, allotted only for you.

This night is our time,

to consummate these bottled up feelings—

acting beyond all moral laws

holding you on this summer night

drenched by the rain,

covered by the darkness,

justifiable through the eyes of passion—

loving you to death.
