Obsession's Villanelle
I need to find this faint reality,
for I have fallen deep into my mind
and phantom dreams are more than they should be.
Your glowing eyes are everything I see,
consuming every glance, so I am blind
when grasping at this faint reality--
and strangled by my thirst till I can't breathe,
so peaceful rest's impossible to find,
and phantom dreams are more than they should be.
Yet would this dark night seek to rescue me,
my senses pulling at me from behind?
I'm laughing at this faint reality,
endeavoring to set my being free--
for 'round my heart your arms are closely twined,
and phantom dreams are more than they should be.
Your smile will drive me to insanity
unless, until your every thought is mine.
I must escape this faint reality;
my phantom dreams are more than they should be.
