My Ghost.

Your reflection is fading,

But still you smile.

Holding on to your memories,

If just for a while.

 

Wait. You're gone,

Vanished in the air.

No trace of sorrow,

Hurt or despair.

 

I can feel your presence,

Your hand touching mine.

Only it's not really true,

Just a deception of my mind.

 

To wake up to you,

Standing at my door.

Is a memory I'd want to live,

Just once more.

 

It will never be,

Not ever again.

Until, my dear,

I've reached my end.

 

I'll pick myself up from this fall,

Though my heart will never mend.

And I'll be with you soon,

My ghost, my love, my friend.
