Haunting You


I want to drift through your mind
   like the ghost of some old memory

I want to linger in your thoughts
   like an uninvited guest

I want to dwell in your subconscious
   a background sound forgotten

I want to make you reconsider
   all the sins you could commit

  2. Beginning each verse with "I want..." really does create a haunting effect. Nice, Eric.

  8. I purposely left that ambiguous, so readers would decide for themselves. (Consciously or otherwise)
