Haunted By You

Haunted is the heart
That walked
                       away
From loves’ promising kiss


Haunted are the fingertips
That brushed her
Lips as she said goodbye
And walked
                         away

A Lovely poem Jeanne - one truly does feel bad, and haunted if they walk away from a love that was meant to be - regret as well no doubt. Enjoyed Jeanne - well penned. Hugs, Jennifer.
