You Haunt My Dreams

How dare you waltz in here,
Into my mind, like you never left,
And expect me to welcome you
With open arms.
I want to let you go, I do,
And live, if I must, bereft,
Without any part of you near.
You haunt my dreams,
Creeping in, uninvited--
I thought you were gone.
Yet there you are,
After so, so long.
These feelings, so one-sided,
Are rushing through my blood,
Rushing back after lying dormant,
So dormant I thought them dead,
But your presence in the night
Seems to have been enough
To bring them back to life.
Stay out of my head,
So I can see what's important.
