Poetry: Haunted

62

By Poetic Muse

dark poetry

Here is another poem for my gothic series of dark poetry. But is also a semi-autobiographical metaphor for a relationship I've been in.

Another poem I wrote around midnight tonight. I think I'm done for the evening.

Haunted

When did I become one of the living dead?

I used to laugh at people like me

My tattered clothes will be my shroud

My broken dreams

No longer proud

Did you mean to break me on the rocks of your will?

Save your bandages

I have no blood left

I bled to death bit by bit

And now there is no more of it

Hmmm, I post poetry on various sites: Witchvox, 8hop, etc. Perhaps our paths have crossed. My photo is here: http://createwithzel.vox.com/

Very catchy. It ends very strong with just enough flavor to remember well.
