You cannot escape me; you are mine,
I watch, I wait, hidden in your shadow.
Each fleeting glance sets my fevered heart aflame.
I leave a feather for you to find,
A crystal glints, a stone slips into your coat.
You cannot escape me; you are mine.
Your laughter rings, a thrill I cannot combat,
Each heartbeat strikes like a drum I cannot tame.
I watch, I wait, hidden in your shadow.
The world cannot see how much I adore you,
Your half-wilted roses, your chocolate-laced delight.
You cannot escape me; you are mine.
I trace your steps, each path a map, a format,
Each flutter of your hand sends my heart aflame.
I watch, I wait, hidden in your shadow.
At last, your eyes will catch the fire in mine,
The spark ignites, our darkness entwined, hallowed.
You cannot escape me; you are mine.
I watch, I wait, hidden in your shadow.
About the Creator
Donna K
I write where love and darkness intertwine in the quiet spaces where obsession is not a cage but a lantern, where madness is not an ending but a mirror. My work spirals through themes of devotion, identity, and the raw intensity being human
