Poetry

I’ve wasted

 So much time letting you get to me.

That there was so much I wanted to see but instead I stayed away because you were there.

Now that I’ve come back I’m not gonna let you be a reason to stop me for doing what I need to do.

Because I only have a few days left before I leave again.

I feel like everything is going well and I haven’t seen you once.

But, I can feel the hairs on the back of my neck going up and I know you are near.

I know if I turned around I will see you and it will scare me like I just saw a ghost.

So I’ll just keep walking and hope you didn’t sense me this time.
