he wants to see me
to tell me
when i’m near
the moon shines brighter
a luminescent soft light
pulled tides pulling closer
like how we were
when we were happy
in love like
children
running around
a carefree life
quick and light
then
accidentally
footsteps turned heavy and quick
familiar
heavy and frightful
the weight of his hand
thump thump thump
my heart beats out of my chest
down my throat
choking words
losing my breath
memories of
just memories
no nightmares
suddenly
he is here
he soothes me tells me
he will stay
to remind me why
he is not that kind of person
like him
a ghost from before
to help me realize
one day
i wish we had never met
