 You don’t remember me,
 do you?
 I spent a few days with you
 a thousand years ago
 last summer
 we were soul mates
 I thought.

 Weren’t they wonderful –
 those endless hours
 that seeped through our fingers
 like the fine sand at the beach we swam at,
 the purposeful grains of the hourglass.
 
 And the amusement park’s
 haunted house
 who’s bed sheet ghosts sent
 shivers up our spines
 and each spider that dropped
 from the roof earned
 a scream.

 That was you, wasn’t it?
 screaming beside me?
 inside me, my head
 mouth wide open,
 tongue trembling under the weight
 of your shriek

 Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhh!

 Goddamn you,
 intruding into my conscious,
 altering my memories,
 where did you go and
 why did you leave me all
 alone?

 You forgot all about me
 but don’t worry, I’m still here
 waiting until your hourglass runs out.
