Haunted

July 31, 2020

You have been haunting me for years.

I see you in strangers, hear you in songs and smell you in my Earl Grey tea.

Last night I dreamt of you. That’s all I know. You were there and so was I.

Did I make the right choices? Was I wise in letting you go, or did I miss out on a friendship that would have lasted the test of time? Do you think of the same? Do you still think I am to blame?

Nothing about us was perfect, but we burned bright as the stars we danced under. Nostalgia whispers to me that things were the best standing in your shadow. It convinces me that those were the best moments of my life. Why am I so haunted by you?

Are you haunted by me too?
