Ghost of you
Ghost of you
I can feel you against me, even though I know you are not there.
Now just shadows that dance upon the wall as the thoughts play in my head.
A trick so cruel as I struggle to come to terms with what might have been.
Now I battle sleepless nights and cannot find any escape.
The feelings buried deep inside for no one to see.
The silence when I am alone is a pain I hold inside.
Never wanting others to see, even when I feel the need to scream.
A painted face of serenity for those around me.
The sound of your joy fades along with everything I knew.
Slipping further and further away until it is just something intangible inside.
What I had is now gone forever, and was there anything I could have ever done?
Now only the ghost of you comes in the silence and darkness of the night.
