To Ghost

To Ghost

A Poem by Abdul Batin Osman Bey
"

about a relationship gone wrong

"

It was never meant to be forever

Only for a year and a day

We dragged ourselves along the way

For no reason at all

 

You can’t get back time ounce it’s spent

Time is the most precious gift we have

Still we waste it

Pretending it will always be here for us

 

Looking back I should have known

We were only skipping stones

Trying to hold to a single moment forever

A moment that was never meant to last

 

We should have stuck to our deal

Instead of building an ant hill

As I write my biography

Not a mention will be made of you and me

 

As I write my history

No one will know about you and me
