#salemverse

I could not breathe
I could not think
My heart was shattered
By your actions
Of you walking away

This heart is haunted
By the ghosts of yesterday
The kisses
The passion
The desire
You threw away
Like the unwanted garbage of a
Life you didn't wish to keep

This haunted heart
Is a shell
Of yesterday
Cobwebs hang on the love
That lives here
That cannot be given to another

Broken lives
In the house
You used to own
As I exorcize the ghosts
Alone
