Haunted

Poetry and photography by Rhashel Price

By Rhashel PricePublished 11 months ago 1 min read

I feel like I am constantly being haunted

Can't seem to let go move on

I swear every now n then

I'll catch a glance of someone

And they look just like you

Every single day I find myself crying

There's nothing to soothe the sorrow

Not a moment passes that I'm not trying

To find another heart n soul to borrow

Because mine died with you

My body and mind have been left here

Unable to comprehend how to continue living in this physical plane of existence

As an empty sack of bone and tissue

Everything else burned away with you

I am lost inside a nightmare

and i feel that ill never awaken

Everything that i thought was worth living for has been taken

Floated into the heavens with you

I fear the darkness that has enveloped me

Has damned me to an eternal pain

That even once i leave this tomb

Leave all that remains

I will then still never make it to you

Punishment for my anger, my begrudging unforgivance

My penance for refusing to accept

What I cannot find within us

And For never expressing how much I truly loved you

You are gone forever taken like a whisper in the night

A moment of existence forgotten misplaced obliterated

Leaving a vale over my eyes so that I will never again see the light

And the empty hole in my chest protected with armor plating

Because there's is only room there for you.
