Haunted

As I try to move forward, you haunt my dreams

You knock, and I am an obliging host

Every apparition pulls at my seams

-

Your phantom is never as real as he seems

Each time I still become engrossed

As I try to move forward, you haunt my dreams

-

You are embedded in my bloodstreams

You won't let the wound become necrosed

Every apparition pulls at my seams

-

When I open my eyes, frustration teems

You are not standing by the bedpost

As I try to move forward, you haunt my dreams

-

If you don't visit in the night, I cast you in my daydreams

I play a part in this relationship with your ghost

Every apparition pulls at my seams

-

You never liked when I spoke in extremes

But I was the one who cared the most

As I try to move forward, you haunt my dreams

Every apparition pulls at my seams
