Challenge of the Week CXXVI
Obsession. Write about obsession. Simple. Fiction or non-fiction, poetry or Prose.
What is It
Bright and illuminating it wakes us,
Beckons us with chimes and dings.
Names only belong to numbers.
Endless twists and turns in the roads
Paved with memories captured falsly.
Our pockets are light yet heavy
Burdened by the cravings.
Thirsts quenched
But we leave unsatisfied
With what see and what we feel
What we wish was ours
What we know cannot be ours.
When tragedy strikes,
When lust desires to be fed,
When joy needs to be shared,
When the world around moves slowly
We turn to what can please
Yet cannot fulfill.
Everyday it's again and again,
We return to the place where
Our obessession knows no ends.
