Stalking my Destiny

A lifetime with you, my heart
beats for.  Don’t deny fate,
closing the door, leaving me
desperate with no choice.

Emptiness I can not bare.
Follow, casting shadows,
giggling I hide out of sight.
Hunting my precious one.

Ignoring her pleas for peace,
just one touch makes her mine.
Knowing I will never cease
lurking, unseen by all.

Mocking, rejection of love
never accepting loss.
Only to me, you belong.
Pity, you make this hard.

Quiet, darling.  Shhh, don’t scream.
Resisting is a waste.
Save your sweet energy for
the love we will create.

Untie you?  No, no, my dear.
Victory I savor,
watching as your spirit wanes.
‘Xcept to me, no more

you shall exist.  Prisoner,
zen, destiny of bliss.
