Haunted
written by: Dennis C Brown
I am haunted by a reflection
Of a shape not yet my own
As I long to find a moment’s truth
In a time still left unknown
I look for answers within the light
That show me what to be
Yet find the darkness of the night
In the shadows I cannot see
My world is not what it seems
As I fight against my inner war
I’m an enemy to my prior self
And a foe to who I’m searching for
Thoughts get lost within my mind
Clouded with feelings of remorse
As I set my path towards certainty
But never seem to stay the course
I see no ending to my ways
Yet continue on my wayward path
In hope that I’ll soon find myself
And take me from my rankled wrath
