You plague my dreams,
As if you have not plagued my life enough,
Tainting my concept of love,
And what it means to be cared for
And touched.
You plague my dreams,
Knowing i have only ever known guilt,
From the time I chose myself over you.
And considered my feelings more important than your own.
You follow me around
A ghostly smirk on your face,
Knowing that whatever happens,
You’ve already won.
Only you could cause such lasting pain,
Such deep wounds,
In just two fleeting years
What little care I have for you,
Comes to me in worried dreams,
The thought of you staying,
In nightmares.
