Obsession
My love of you takes hold of my being
Making me forgo the rest I am seeing
Hearing your presence in every song
Seeing your faces and wanting to belong
Most do not understand why I am this way
I cannot explain it, I just say
To those who are like I
They understand why
We cling to every word
We feel the emotion in every song
The long wait for any kind of sign
That you will again sing divine
