My Curse

Not many people know I'm not as simple as I seem
For a secret and a burden haunts me like a dream

A difficult disturbance plagues my every will
Its common, yet i feel alone, and makes me feel quite ill

It's been feeling like a dark, dark spirit, sadistic in my mind
Since childhood it's been torchering me, never mercifully kind

A sad event from years ago has given me this curse
Since then no matter how hard I tried it just kept getting worse

I'm not a violent person, and still yet even so
I get the most horrifying thoughts and they simply will not go

These thoughts make me insecure every single day
So I check and touch and redo things until the thoughts go away

I feel so dumb and weak when I constantly lose control
It seems like having this disorder makes me quite less whole

This isn't understandable unless you really see
But you may now get the gist of how it feels to have OCD

Do you have a curse?

    I love this poem. Mostly because it's something that affects you and what you wrote comes from the heart. Love you girl!
