Go now

I cannot write
I have been frozen by thoughts of you
I see you everywhere
In my dreams
And the faces of people I meet

You have been away from me for far too long
And longing makes me shudder
I anticipate you coming back to me
The sounds of your laughter
Tickling my being with peace

You were the one
I saw you in a different way
But you wanted the world
To come and get you
To whisk you away on life's magic carpet
And find your center

But I was the one for you
I knew you like no other ever would
I can take comfort that no one will ever
Touch you that way
It must be a curse for you
It is for me

You haunt me
My thoughts change and change and you still appear
Nowhere can I find you now
Nowhere can I see your face again
And I am lost in you

I have drowned in your passion
I have been left with the scars  
Relationships lost and love strangled
By the pleasures of others who drink in your
Way and chase you down only to hurt you more

Go now back to your ghosts
And leave me in my silence
To find new thoughts and new loves
I weep for you no more
