Obsession

There is a fine line between love and obsession.

A dichotomy of extremes,

Brightest light and darkest blight,

Two sides of the same alluring coin.

Love is blind,

Obsession is blinding.

Love is the light in the dark,

And obsession is the dark in the light.

Love is the purest joy,

Obsession, the most poignant pain.

Love is all you need,

And obsession is more than you can stand.

Love will heal you,

And obsession will tear you apart,

Piece by piece,

And leave you whimpering in pain.
