Haunted

Haunted by the ghost of memories past 
Leaving the mind as fragile as glass 
Rearranging every thought 
Confused and left feeling distraught
Unable to let go and forget 
Drowning in a sea of regret
Life slowly slips away 
Day by day 
Praying searching and hoping to find a way 
To find a way to escape

Powerful, emotive write Brandie....I've been there, in that place of loss and despair. Mindfulness helps!
