Description Haunted,

I wander alone

over memories I've always known,

of pain and loss and misery

I cannot travel far enough

to escape their pull.

The stars may change, overhead

but I still am unable to be free.

I am haunted

by hollow promises and empty words

that spoke of love.

I am haunted

in the moments between, waking and sleep

and my memories  they tear

down very deep

parts of my past

and to not relent

no matter how much time

has spiraled around

my soul

or how many thousands

of miles I've walked

carrying this unbelievable

lode

of sorrow

and lies

that never

truly leave me

be

there is no

mercy

at all, anywhere

for me.

What have i done

to deserve this pain?

I loved true, and deep

and did not once

betray that truth.

Yet here I remain

haunted

a ghost

a wraith

to drift

slowly

away.

kind of like water falling from one dish to the next as they sit on the drying rack.

Or pouring over stones and down into a waterfall?
