Haunted

by Kenn Hinton

I’ve seen better days,
and again they’ll come around.
Until then I’ll let nothing,
and no one hold me down.

My disposition changed,
in the blinking of an eye.
I do not know the reason,
but my love was denied.

Maybe I was too aggressive,
or not aggressive enough.
Maybe I was gentle,
when I should have been tough.

Whatever the problem is,
the solution I will find.
I will not waste a minute,
for it’s weighing on my mind.

The days now seem longer
and night an empty space.
In the corner of my mind,
I see her smiling face.

I guess it’s just one of those things,
that never should have been.
Yet her memory still haunts me,
and will until the end.
