    As I lurk in the shadows, I watch you having fun as I have done for so long
    You know not of my existence, but I still watch you until I get up the courage to speak to you one day
    I was touched by fire, and my physical appearance, let's just say I don't look like I belong
    So this is why I lurk in the shadows secretly watching you each and every day.

    My physical appearance has a tendency to distress others so
    So I am scared to speak to you or to approach you
    But tonight as I watch you things are different, you are with a man oh, how I wish I were him though
    I would take you into my arms and love you with a love so true.

    As I watch from the shadows, I see the man lean down and kiss you
    I feel anger because I thought you would reserve your self just for me
    Because I my dear, could give you a love so true
    How can you let this stranger ravish your body so? This was supposed to be me.

    I hear your male friend say," Let's go to my place and we will make love all night long"
    As I silently watch I can feel my blood begin to boil
    What hurts so, you are clinging to this stranger so very very tight
    I must stop you from making this dreadful mistake, I must show myself this very night.

    I step out of the shadows, and just like all the others you let out a blood curdling scream
    The strange man tries to defend you, but I have a gun, shooting him dead as I watch him fall to the ground
    I shake you, trying to calm you down, trying to make you realize this is not a dream
    My hands go around your throat to silence you, but when I let go you silently fall to the ground.

    Wow, that's crazy man. Jealousy and obcession mounting to a tragic crescendo. Good stuff

    Amazing! That's just how I describe your poem. Real emotions of love.
