leave me alone

they say your head is a place of solitude

a place to be alone

but those people still haunt me

no matter the extents of an exorcism

i try to let them go

to leave them in my past

but i just cant shake them

theyre a part of me

i must accept that

they may be a rotting sore on my past

or a person i loved dearly with only ugly in their heart

i dont think of them most days

just faded memories in my brain

but often during late nights

i remember the bond, the joy, the laughter

i miss them most nights

even if it was happily never after
