You Don't Know Me?

Not sure what happened here with this 1, but I went to the dark side......damn!!

You don't know me!
I'm lurking in places you don't even know exist, yet
You think you know where to find me
You don't even know the half of it.
I'm what eats away at your soul
I'm everything you know and dread to be.
I know what and who you truly are.
I know you are lost and lonely.
Locked inside your shrinking mind.
You cannot come down deep enough
To find me at the perimeters.
You cannot own or touch me
Like I will own and touch you.
You cannot fathom my enjoyment
In your pathetic isolated comfort.
I will grind you down gradually,
In slow paranoid confusion of your own self worthlessness.
There are no choices left for you now.
You cannot break my agreement.
You are forever eternally owned.
Your cowardly tears cannot
penetrate emotions I do not own.
You are tied to the shadows,
miserably denying I exist.
You are immaculately pathetic.
You are the reason I exist.
I breed on your morbid thoughts.
I have tracked you down.
Now we are bonded in melancholy,
you will never be free.
You cannot breathe without me.
You cannot leave without me.
I will strip you bare to your bones.
You have no control anymore.
I am the real underlining secret you
you don't want anybody to see, I know
you'll hear, see, feel and taste me.
You will be me?
You are me.
We - me - alone.

@smellyfingers yeah it took me a while to talk earlier about the review thing. Just felt he wasn't going about it in the right way. I feel like I have confidence to stand up for what I believe. Probably just lost in translation though, he's Russian I think.

@Stablish yeah I was a bit confused on what he was saying.....got there in the end tho, lol he cool mate, doing it for the right reasons. If we don't ask questions of ourselves and/or others we will never know, that's not good IMO, best to ask what you want/need and then move on. No point holding stuff in. ;-)

@smellyfingers the manner & ease of which you string adjective after adjective into mind blowing statements is superb!!

@smellyfingers Yeah I think he is, the update should fix things hopefully. A chat function would be good.
