Notes About The Poem

Written on October 20, 2025

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 

A Haunted Heart


In my mind, she still survives
The smallest hand, I held on tight
Not tight enough – this memory revives
The moment when she left the fight

A fight between her and a dark disease
The story is so old – but I must tell it
It’s so long past, but I fall to my knees
Praying for relief – yes, I’ll definitely admit…

My heart still beats when I hear her name
Flooded with a feeling, such a deep pain
Still blaming, the shame– oh, nothing is the same
She haunts my heart so I’m almost insane
