My Favourite Haunt

You are a shadow, Glittering obscurely in front of me- Caressing my skin with gentle grace, Before I step into your embrace, And you consume me. You are a wraith- Transparent in your intentions, You linger, Casting a shadow over my heart, Over my soul, As you drag me further into the dark. You are a phantom. You haunt my dreams. And have the starring role in all of my nightmares. You have corrupted the light in me- My soul, a dying flame on the wick of a candle. One more blow- I'm gone. I am a ghost now- A translucent fraction Of the glowing life I used to be. Your hands weigh heavy on my body, As they have since the first time i saw you And now I'm stuck with you. My favourite haunt.
