He Put a Spell on You

The Breakup Nonet Challenge

By Geoffrey Philp Published about a year ago 1 min read

There was a ghost that haunted our love.

He'd sneak into your dreams at night

with promises of bright days

while you shifted in bed.

You believed his lies,

seduced by spells--

the moonlight

alone--

rain.
