OBSESSION

By: Michael Scott Snyder

You playfully flirt and drive me wild.
And yet...
I know we will always just be friends.

The subtle sway in your walk sets my mind ablaze.
And yet...
I know we will always just be friends.

Thoughts of you blow into my mind like flashing lights-
dancing- arousing my whole body.
And yet...
I know we will always just be friends.

When I think of what could have been
I let out a mental scream of frustration.
And at night my unconscious mind races
with thoughts of us and the future,
and my stomach churns telling me to go for it all...
but... NO! I can't for...
I know that we will always just be friends.
