The ghosts of the past lover

Most people remember their past lovers.
They stay with you and you only seem to remember the good
and can sometimes fantasies over the memories. 
The times you made love,
found passion in the pursuit of a person
you felt this intense emotional draw to.
They all take part of your heart. 
Even when you find someone you love.
When there is hard times you sometimes find yourself thinking
about old relationships or fantasies about memories past. 
Your heart gets haunted by old lovers -
Wounded -
and it's harder to give totally to another. 
This sacred dance can become a habit
or an addiction
where by you feel the past lovers deep down -
the ghosts of the past lover. 
Every time you hear the ghosts of the past lover,
the heart is wounded.
Your love can become damaged if you don't address these ghosts
and make peace with them.
Your love for your lover can become damaged
even if you love the person you're with -
a piece of your heart can be given to a past lover. 
So be careful with who you give your body and heart to.
They will be with you for the rest of your life.
