Photos of GhostsA Poem by Java BumPhotographs of memories Satiate my mind A place of our own A dead but better time A smile like bliss And a touch wanting more A voice that burned Your body, my hoarde I take blindly, keeping it all A willing fool, I am your thrall I fall with the tide Lusting for your love Every beat of my life Showing what I'm made of Left with a promise That I'd always have you Now I'm left begging For the youth of our old Truth In the emptiness I beckon for more A way to fill this void A feeling other than "torn" Holding on to this dream Living off of what we knew The bottle numbs the pain While I talk with the ghost of You © 2010 Java Bum |
