This is the haunting reality captured in the evocative poem before you, which paints the past as a gray specter—ever-present, unforgiving, and all-consuming. As the poet grapples with the weight of experiences that refuse to fade, we’re invited to ponder: how much of our present is truly ours, and how much is an echo of yesterday? Join me as we delve deep into the exquisite, albeit dark, landscape of memory, where every reflection can feel like a reminder of the things we cannot change. Prepare yourself for an exploration of time’s relentless grip, where the specter of the past lurks around every corner… LEARN MORE.

that haunts me wherever I go
hoarding all of my memories
and the people I used to know
a specter who countenances
no resurrections at my bidding
from his dark abysmal vaults.
