Haunted Poem by Megan du Toit

Haunted by you at sleep or awake
Searching for just a glimpse of your face
Destructive thoughts still in my head
Missing the pain that once was said
You looked at me with all disgust
To prove you wrong I thought a must
You chose to love me only halfway
Never speaking the words you needed to say
Forever you will slip into my thoughts
Forever I will let you
Haunted, betrayed and broken by love
Defeated, exhausted
And can never say “I do”
