Long Dark watches of the night

By BetaWolfinVA

screaming silences jar my mind
and keep me from sleeping
memory of your warmth
pressed close to me
as we lay sleeping
tears at my soul
all these years
after you left
.
i dont know if you loved me then
i wonder if you were using me
i never stopped loving you
i just stayed away as
often as i could
out of fear
.
remembering your warmth
in nights and mornings 
when i visited you
haunts me
still
