Go

He stalks me at night 

Haunts my restless dreams  

Taunting me until I plead:   

Please don’t go

He hides in my mind

Filling in the voids

Thrilling to my desperate need:

Please don’t go

He was not like this

Never so unmoved

Never one to make me beg

To bargain for his heart

Well then, what is this?

Punishment for love?

A puzzle to be solved

So that we can’t be kept apart?

No.

He leaves me at dawn

Tearful and alone

Fearful once but angry now:

Please, just go
