That Night by Nicole Gaylor

That Night

I was innocent,
But you were desperate.
All of my feelings of ecstasy from that day
Were wiped away in that very moment.
I now stumble about in pain and sorrow.
I writhe in anger and grief.
I am being smothered by mental agony.
That horrible night keeps me floundering in my sleep.
My friends say it is distant in my past,
But I am haunted every day of my life.
I will not forget you until I die.
