Haunting

I lay here in bed
In the lonilness of night
And I hear you voice
Echoing through my mind
A ghost of what was.
I toss and turn and try to sleep
The memory of your touch
Trailing so light against my skin
In those passion filled nights
Floats in my misty thoughts
A cold lonely chill softly
Sweeps over me as I think of you
And I wonder as my eyes sting
And my heartbreak grows  
Will you ever stop haunting me?

I dont know that a lost love ever really quits haunting.  Even if replaced with a better one and a stronger one we have a tendency to go back to the past in our minds at different points.  Wonderful write my friend.  Liked it much.

Lonliness is revenage of the soul, he who looses loves, gains lonliness.

This was a beaurtiful poem.

  rosepetals25...

          This is 'hauntingly' beautiful,
          and I felt a chill as I read it
          through!  Wonderful writing!!


Today is a gift....
That is why they call it
'the Present'!

very well written...
sad and beautiful that's composition that hits

If I should fall again, then they will laugh but what if just this one I rise?
