haunting

posted on: 10.30.2017

every turn, every new place i visit. old, frequent haunts. you are everywhere. all the places i go, all the places i try to escape to. my dreams. you are haunting me.

it could be as simple as a photo, your name on a storefront, a restaurant, an ice cream shop, an instagram post, a scent, a stranger's t shirt. 

the place you exist most is in my future. why can't i let you go? why can't you leave my vision, my idea of future, of future love? when your love is so toxic and broken right now, not least because of my actions but yours too. 

please go. please erase your face from my future. i would, but i don't know how. 

i'm lost, like i have been before, like i will be again.
