Something
the shadows of the past
haunt me in my psyche
striking me with this feeling
I tried so hard to suppress
it’s the only way I can get out of bed
pretending like I don’t miss you like crazy
don’t you know it’s your ghost
telling me you’re sorry
wish I could tell you for real
I forgive you
guess I’ll just have to say it in a dream
closing my eyes to visit you again
the room was dark
while the tv played in the background
we laughed like old times
and in that moment
I felt the closest to heaven
that was till I woke and realized
life sucks more and more as the years go
looking through old pictures of us
remembering it all so well
it was like another life
one where I truly had no worries
and it was all because of you
once you left
I had no motivation
no damn reason to keep going
I keep fighting though
thinking that feeling will come back
somehow you will just bust through that door
hold me so tight
tell me to forget who was wrong or right
we would act like the last few years never happened
yeah, that would be something
haunt me in my psyche
striking me with this feeling
I tried so hard to suppress
it’s the only way I can get out of bed
pretending like I don’t miss you like crazy
don’t you know it’s your ghost
telling me you’re sorry
wish I could tell you for real
I forgive you
guess I’ll just have to say it in a dream
closing my eyes to visit you again
the room was dark
while the tv played in the background
we laughed like old times
and in that moment
I felt the closest to heaven
that was till I woke and realized
life sucks more and more as the years go
looking through old pictures of us
remembering it all so well
it was like another life
one where I truly had no worries
and it was all because of you
once you left
I had no motivation
no damn reason to keep going
I keep fighting though
thinking that feeling will come back
somehow you will just bust through that door
hold me so tight
tell me to forget who was wrong or right
we would act like the last few years never happened
yeah, that would be something

For sure. It would be nice to be able to keep things special. Unfortunately some friendships end even when you wish they would stick around.
Thanks for reading 😁

I really felt the meaning and weight in this write. I can relate so much to that yearning for someone from your past. It’s truly heartbreaking and tragic.
