Hauntings
By colleen
Why do these ghosts insist on coming back To haunt me again and again?Waking me up screaming in the middle of the nightNot quite sure where I amOr who I am Why can't they just leave my poor body alone?I wake up with bruises on my body,Beaten up by the ghosts.I once welcomed these spiritsI welcomed the chance to meet some happy spiritsTo come and protect from my enemies and fearsNow I'm forced to run away from the very spirits Who were once my closest companionsKeeping me company as I'd walk the dark halls of my great estateI can no longer walk through peacefullyI run around the many rooms hoping to lose the ghosts Who have out stayed their welcome but they always find meAlways stopping me before I find that one door outThat will lead me back to the world of the livingAway from this world where it is eternally nightDarkness surrounds me.These ghosts chase me around and aroundUntil I am too tired to continueI collapse into one of the many beds in this mansionAnd I hope that I am not awakened That I will be allowed a night of peaceful sleepWhich I have never had since these ghosts entered my home.It's the same everydayNothing ever changesThe ghosts have complete control over me,As they always haveI get no restI never willMy Prince CharmingGot lost trying to make his way into save meAnd he was my last hope.
