If I can't have you, no one will. For Stained's poetry contest! Explanation required.
You're my forbidden fruit,
my sweet obsession.
The one that I want most;
the one I can not have.

I'm smothered slowly,
by the toxic temptation.
Lust burns like fire in me;
I cannot help but crave.

None of my words,
none of my prayers,
can melt the ice walls
around your heart.

I offered you my soul
my love, my all,
and you threw it away;
tore my heart apart.

My soul is now broken,
my heart is no more.
I know now I can't have you,
but I'm not letting you go.

At night I'll creep in
through your window
and watch you sleep,
as you lie still.

With my damning kiss
I'll curse you with a life of darkness.
If I can't have you,
no one will.


Explanation:I've done everything to make him notice me. He couldn't see what was right in front of him. What else could I do but damn him for eternity?
