Haunted Poem by Ashley Heedt

Haunted

Rating: 5.0


I call him sadness
this ghost that haunts me
it will never set me free
it starts at my inner core
consumes my soul
more and more
till happieness is pain
the smile hurts
the tears keep me going
but its hard not knowing
the next time I will smile
this ghost haunts me for a while
then leaves to watch
as I smile and laugh
for but a second
then takes over every part of my body
and fills it
with nothing, but
terror, death, fear, and sarrow
so bad
im scared of tomarrow
the pain that never stops
the fear that creeps into my mind
the sarrow
that makes my tears pool
like rain
this tortured soul
that shares the pain
this thing
that drives me insain
my nails bitten to nothing
my hair pulled and torn
this insanity
this constant fear
of what is near
do you hear it
crying inside me
do you see it in my eyes
can you feel it when I touch you.

It hides behind a closed door
but somehow makes it through
its frightening
when you know
it wants you
its eyes fallow me
it breaths down my kneck
breathing silent wispers
the secretes thats its kept
its in my closet
watching me sleep
it thinks im his to keep
it hangs over me often
just to watch me weep
im trapped inside its eyes
hes trapped inside of mine
so when you see me smile
know everythings not fine
my soul is screaming for help
my heart is beating fast
its crawling inside my brain
cant you see me going insain
forever it will fallow
sit and watch me wallow
beneath my voice it will talk
beside me it will walk
behing me it will stay
it will never go away
