Keeping You

I cant get you out of my head.
Its irritating.
Ill go days even weeks with only you bouncing around in my brain.
Playing old memories over again and again
I try, believe me i try
To push you away. Close you out.
But here you stay.
Reminding me, never letting me forget.
The breeze blows by warm and sweet and you appear.
As if the wind had called your name for me.
You overwhelm me, rushing in on me, crashing down on me like a breaking wave.
You tease me in my dreams, only to wake and find your not there 
Only a passing moment long lost to the decisions we make.
If only there were a rewind button. A way to go back.....
No. I'm stuck here, in the dark with only an old vision of you.
Mine to keep. These phantoms of the past. So here ill keep the remnants of your ghost.
Here in my head, I'll keep you.
