Haunting

Haunting

Was it my own karma that brought this on me?
Maybe a blessing I get when I sleep
Her face is etched, forever in my mind
Together we shall be, all in due time
Hair as dark as the midnight sky,
Her eyes so beautiful, the dolphins cry
The scent of her skin would drive me mad,
Now my dreams are reminders of all that we had
Days are good, most nights seem long,
Unconsciously knowing that presence is gone
When I close my eyes, those memories creep,
Play back and forth, torturous sleep
