Your essence surrounds - loving me, imprisoning me.
Forever tossed in the sea of a lost love.
Drowning, never to emerge.
Your ghostly form entrances my soul.
Terrifying loneliness grows within as
endless shadows creep closer.
Perpetually entwined in twilight abyss.
Bittersweet whispers revive somber reflections -
opening old wounds.
Your delicate aura burns forever to memory.
Our love foretold in moonlit dreams,
cast to the shadows of a haunted seduction.

This made me think of the one who got away. We all have that someone that haunts us. Forcing us to ask what if. If only. This was sad and beautiful at the same time. Good job.
