Tonight I am lonely. Three ghosts are my only company. (and they just came by to remind me of some unfinished business I have yet to settle) I did not invite them over. But once they came inside, I felt obligated to offer them each a cup of coffee. I make great coffee. Now they don't want to leave. Ghost number one is reminding me of the fact that I forgot to say good-bye to someone I loved. Number two is hounding me about an apology letter I never answered. The third has her eyes set on my ex-boyfriend and wants to know when it will be okay to start seeing him. I am silently praying that they will leave, but number two decided they should all spend the night. I don't think I'll sleep well with their constant prattle and knowledge of my history.
Reason for writing:
I think of my haunting memories as my ghosts; I guess this
poem doesn't make a whole lotta sense, but...whatever.
