My Haunting

          Why do I let you haunt me?
          You're a small figure from the past.
          I can not say I truly loved you.
          I never knew you that well.

          I thought I got over you.
          I should have gotten over you
          Yet after all this time,
          You're still there.

          I wonder what happened to you.
          Are you single?
          Are you married?
          Do you still remember me?

          I can still see you face.
          I still remember you smile.
          I hear your voice still.
          What's the hell wrong with me?

          You're somewhere I'll never get know,
          I'll never get to see.
          Why why why?
          Why must I still let you haunt me?

          I know I'll let you go soon.
          Like I thought I did before.
          I'll find the man that was meant for me.
          'Till that happens, I'll never be free.

© S.A.L. 11/8/01- On 11/6/01, I had a blast into the past. This client's last name was the same as the first name of this kid I had a crush on in high school. Admit his name? Never! The name of the street she lives on was the same as his middle name. Well, the past few days, he's been haunting my mind. I wrote this as a way to cope, I guess.
