Xeno Hemlock

Of course, you won’t admit how much you think of me
Your first thought in the morning before your cup of tea.
At lunch you can’t escape, I swim in your soup
As you doze off at work, I put your mind in a coop.

Then comes the sunset, clearly my domain
Like a devil at night, I continue my reign
I linger in your head right before you sleep
You still think of me, dreaming I’m yours to keep.
