I cannot shake
The rancid putrid thoughts
That cling to the sides
Of my stomach
And to my soul
Each time you mention
You built a shrine
For me
And stare at my picture
A hundred times a day
You stalk my dreams
Your persitance will never let me be
I'm sorry
It's all quite disturbing
I do not want to be
The object of your obession
Nor the play thing of your midnight sessions
We never met
Nor ever really spoke
So tell me
Why it's not my place
To tell you to go
No longer grovel at my feet
As you meander through my treasured dreams
I know I gave you no real reason
To be the object of your obession...

I guess you find the height of this pedestal....troubling. Well, you can't pick the ones that find you this appealing, merely hope that the right one does.
Nice vent, begone wi' the bugger.

In reply to "which way do we go?", the answer was never "straight", but, "progressively forward".

Mildly disturbing, but oh-so-true! Stalkers are scary business! (Not like I've ever been stalked, but from what I understand...). Whoever was stalking you I hope has taken off by now...frightening.

Ceinwyn,
I hope this is only a writing exercise,
and not truth.

Either way ...
I feel the shiver.

Hmm...kinda...freaky.  The thought makes me look over my shoulders twice and then out the windows.  
Good piece, very much liked!
