Ghost

Ghost

A Poem by Alex P.
"

The ghost of Christmas Past haunts me this night.

"

A year ago today,

You took me in your arms

And said you’d never let me go

Now a long year later,

And you’ve left me in the snow

 

I should have seen it coming,

It was as plain as a neon sign,

But I thought she was decent enough,

To respect that you were mine

 

But I was wrong and now you’re gone

Leaving the ghost of you behind,

Haunting me throughout this night,

And disappearing with the dawn

 

You’re still with me every step I take

I can’t seem to be rid of you

Even though I know the truth

Even though somewhere deep inside,

I kind of always knew

Honestly? Well, I am trying to think of something boring, silly, incorrect, or sappy about it ......

But, I can't find anything. The last line really is perfect for this write. The picture pAints a haunting image.

Nice job.
