Poetry: Haunting recollections

by Gwen Edwards

Created on: August 01, 2010

My Haunted Heart


As I sit here alone in darkness ,

I hear them

Echoing voices bringing back memories

My loves, my friends of a time long since past

They are all here

Wandering the halls of my heart

Their presence haunting me

for I am not with them, I have traveled on

but my heart still remembers.


From this here, I understand the reasons we no longer share the same place

still it doesn't stop my heart from missing them

Some of us are called to be alone

We are meant to walk the path between worlds

This path is not for everyone

For it means leaving much behind

Perhaps one day some will follow

But until then memories of their lives haunt my heart
