Mine

When I say it was a long time ago,I mean that my nightmares are less frequent.When I say that I'm over it,I mean I think about it often.I mean that I don't functionwithout reminders of you.Day to dayyou are in my blood.Surging through meunseen, but felt.Coursing through veinsI often dreamt of slashing.I don't want you here,yet here you are.Mine, always.Just like you said.m.e. peters  _____________________________________________________Photo Credit: Photo by Stefano Pollio on Unsplash
