    nightly hauntings
    clouding aromas reminding me
    of times of old.
    when my days were not
    simple-but easily ended
    with a full nights rest
    on the floor-bound mattress.

    cold windows
    seeping in winter breath
    so lonely-but easily forgotten
    with a handfull of sleeping pills
    and a bottle of cheap wine.

    i dont wish for those lonely months
    i dont mourn my loss of love
    because love it was not-
    obsession, addiction, penetration
    and easy destraction
    from the purity of true emotion.

    comfort found us both
    in altered mind states
    relishing in the untrue and unnatural.
    leading to a decline
    mentally & physically
    together on a descent
    into cheating lies and unsettled thoughts.

    while i searched for love
    he basked in misery
    my happiness unraveled
    his heart of string.
    til i removed myself
    as one removes a limb from a body
    half decayed, nearly killing us both.

    and still i search for true love
    i wish for no more of
    dishonest disguises
    or fleeting feelings of false hope
    and illusions of grandure.

    because that wont help me sleep at night
    with an icy draft leaking down my spine.

    think not of regression
    when the bottles seem full.
    beckoning boredom betrayal-
    descent into a dismal land
    of dreaming demons.
