Baggage

I am your baggage The weight you carry inside When you remember The twinge you feel As you recall the touch The all too often reminder The heart flutter When you think you hear my voice The pain When you see my picture The desire When your heart screams for me The burning When your scent catches a familiar fragrance The longing When your soul cries out The regret Of what was lost The love you want to give I am your shame The black mark Someone who will forever remain in the shadows of your past The one you traded in love for comfort
