The Ghost.

Frustration at having emotions for someone.

 

Why?

 

Why can't I get you out of this space?

Why can't I just make you disappear?

 

I keep waiting, with a breath of air

in my lungs that I have held there

for years.

 

Waiting for you to respond, or react,

show me something, a sign that I am

valid in your romantic little life.

 

That you feel for my existence, even

from those heavy shadows that choke

you, but yet you love to sleep in.

 

Why can't I make you just as invalid as

I feel every time you ignore me in some

new and expected way?

 

Why can't I just stop realizing you are

existing in perfect peace...

 

without me?

This is just... the way that, I think, everybody has felt in their life. It's an amazing song and it really reminds me of this person I knew... Well, I tried to get to know. And it really struck me in a way, cuz it says it all in this few lines written here. Very intense.

Awe, my sweet Linda... *hugs* My beautiful sweet Linda. How anyone could live in peace without you is beyond me. You're an angel, with wings, from heaven. This is so perfectly written. It fits my feelings so well about 'someone' else.... I understand so perfectly. So strange how you and I can feel and experience the same emotions... it is what brought us together. I love you babygirl. Sweet sweet babygirl.
