Your face emerges from the
darkness
that I shut it into.
Your name resurfaces from the
depths
that I shoved it down.
My memories of you become more
alive
than when they happened.
Rage, love, lust, hate, greed
all
pulse through my
veins.
Heart races.
Blood pumps.
Vision fuzzy.
Breathing shallow.
Hands tremble.
Knees buckle.
I thought I was rid of you.
I don't understand
why
you keep coming
back.
A blood curdling
shriek
shakes me,
especially
when I realize that it
came barreling from
my lips.
Insanity creeps up my
spine,
along with your
unworthy
presence.
You whisper in my
ear,
"I'll never let you
go."
