Haunted (An angsty poetic writing that sounds nothing like anything else I've ever written before)

{Before you read this:
A) I am not unhappy. This is just a poem, and while it's true -- I just had a moment. Making that clear.
B) Don't ask me what it's about please, let the mystery consume you :) }

Haunted
I can't escape
Can't get away
you're everywhere
when I sleep, you're there
Holding me tight
whispering in my ear
all those sweet nothings
I desperately want to hear
where are you?
Where have you gone?
You've left a piece of you behind
Your image constantly bombards my mind
it's like Halloween
all those ghosts unseen
I think I see you
but when I look
you're not there
Were you ever here?
Was it just a dream?
All I know is that you haunt my heart
leaving a shadow I can't repress
Will you ever leave?
Do I want you to?
Sometimes I wish I'd never met you.
I'd be so much more normal.
But I'm haunted by your memory.
The sweet caress of what could have been.
A part of me knows I'd do it all the same
because with your shadow
I'd be completely
