I feel haunted, assaulted while I sleep
There is no warning. Nothing to prepare me for your arrival
You show up unwanted and manage to unearth the pain & loss
The tears & hurt
Even the friendship and love
I wish I could keep you away
I entreat you not to plague me
But you do
Forever locked away in my subconscious
Yet able to unleash yourself to invade my slumber
My heart was left broken and tattered.
Did you claim a piece as plunder from battle
Or is the memory of you simply a remnant of another life that will forever be with me?
