OBSESSION

My thoughts twist, turn and spiral out of control.
I sit staring, vacantly, intensely, seemingly into a void.
I am consumed.
Eaten up by a force I cannot control.
A force of which the source is a mystery to me.
How do I let this happen? And why do I let it continue?
You're in my head.
Hammering away until my brain is sore.
Consuming each thought I have.
Like a ravenous fire intent on destroying my very soul.
Obsession!
It eats and eats.
Until the self has been savaged, pulled apart.
Be gone, Get out, Leave me!
I am stronger than this.
