ghost

why don’t we shut the lights  
i’m not good at hiding  
and terrified of goodbyes  
i’m not gonna lie i know i didn’t try  
 
my eyes stream way too many tears  
that now i can’t see you clear  
everything i feared you have disappeared
this has been one hell of year  
 
all that’s left are the pictures we took
i hope you still have that book  
and sometimes you at least give it a look  
 
you slipped through my hands like sand
you’ll never understand  
this pain that i withstand  
i just want to make amends  
 
tired of running away  
i’ll pray for just one more day  
i get to see you face to face  
but for now i know my place  
 
living just to die another day  
now that you have gone away  
i still think about you everyday  
i hope you’re doing okay  
after this catastrophe i made  
 
won’t you stay with me  
a while in my dreams  
it seems that’s the only place  
i’ll ever be at peace
 
i’ll just reminisce until i cease to exist  
and i’ll forever miss  
your eyes your smile your kiss  
why did i do all this
 i wish i never called it quits
 
almost had forever  
with the one  
i love the most  
however now you’ve  
become a living ghost
