You don't see me You don't know me You are not even with me.... Where you ever? Was I ever with you? You see the ghosts of your lovers past Superimposed on my face Though my eyes cry out It's me..... Please look..... Please look you cry out But I can't hear you For the voices of my lovers past Yet we cling to each other As we cling to our ghosts Do we choose to see the one we love.... Do we remain haunted and lost In the familiar comfort of our loneliness and pain.... Everything that irritates us about others can lead us to an understanding of ourselves. |

I have haunted ~ and I have been haunted, thusly. ![]() It's important for both to be "In the now." ![]() Enjoyed reading your thoughts on this fairly common scenario. If we don't let go of the past, it will continue to haunt us and impinge on the present. ![]() EA |

Thank you ![]() A friend of mine wrote a great book and has a wonderful line in it: "everyone one has a wound or two" Martin Rovers I've found that it's a choice that takes practice and discipline to live in the moment but well worth it.
