I wish you would go away
Everywhere I turn,
There you are again.
The past—
Creeping up on me.
Thinking you were gone—
I let out a breath,
And yet,
You have come back to haunt me.
I turn my back to you,
And you show up in front of me.
When I first met you,
I would try running into you;
Every time I saw you,
My heart would skip a beat.
Now I try to avoid and ignore you,
And sometimes I have no choice—
But to see your face again.
When will I escape?
Better yet—
When will you go away?
