You are a phenomenon to me
I am consumed by you
My being becoming fragile
with the torment I endure
You say you abhor my feelings for you,
seeing them as an abnormality in me
Knowing my love for you is consecrated,
you choose to treat it sacrilegiously
making an infinitesimal attempt
to love me
When I feel worthless,
wanting to normalize my life,
and leave this dreadful situation behind me
You grab me with all you have
I am left gasping for breath
My neck left with magenta bruises
refusing to let me go, then
professing an undying love for me
Such a paradox of disinformation
It is then that I abhor you
