ghost of romance past

just a wee poem, by yours truly :)
--------

Well hello there, handsome
Do you remember me?
I’m the ghost of romance past,
And once I was everything you wanted,
But I guess it just wasn’t meant to last.
I treated you like a king
Remember how I was at your beck and call?
And you just laid a beating on me
So I must’ve never meant much to you at all.
Do you remember my face?
These dark eyes that once haunted you?
This smile, it once lit up your life.
Remember my kiss?
My voice?
My taste?
I certainly will never forget,
The feeling of having somebody,
What it was like when you filled that empty space.
How I’ve missed you,
I remember every little thing
Every word, every glance, every touch,
Every time you knocked the wind out of me
Too much of you, to me, has never been enough.
So tell me, now do you remember?
I’m the ghost of romance past,
And I’ve come to reclaim our love.
