his conversation led to a love
hinged on lethal obsession
a sad tale of a friend’s need
for everlasting possession

Not a true story. Simply playing around with words and pictures. Find this poem also posted for 3WW and Theme Thursday! Hope to see you there!
Well wrote. Sounds like a lot of pain and love mixed for a lethal dose of sadness.

Unfortunately such a need is never everlasting. But too often lethal. Nicely captured.

Some find it hard to distinguish between the two. Love has nothing to do with ownership.

the way i read it {three times} it seems to work that either one of them could be the one with the obsession, yes?
it’s a great write about what can turn into a really dangerous situation.

That is true Dani, though when writing it, I didn’t think of it that way. You are right! Thank you!

So was he the one who wanted to possess or was she the one who wanted to possess because of his conversation. But the first time I read it I almost thought the friend was a male friend. So this could have gone three ways, I think I was having a conversation with myself, LOL. I need to shut the brain down and go to bed.
Thanks for sharing this with us for this weeks Conversation Theme Thursday. I had fun trying to figure it out.
God bless.
