The Ghost

The Ghost

A Poem by Color of the Iris

 

Restlessly turning in your sleep

You feel your pain taking over again

Honey, forget about me

Yes, I loved you, but I’m gone now

It hurts me to see you like this

Looking back with you now

I would’ve done anything

As long as it would’ve altered the future

So I could be with you forever

 

(Chorus)

I’m sorry, life’s one big complication

Trust me, I think of you all the time

Although, I don’t envy you, my love

I don’t want to go back to that life

 

Believe in me when you hear me

I’m not a dream, I’m really with you

Honey, you can’t feel me

But I can feel the pain radiating off you

And it’s killing me again

 

(Chorus)

 

(Listen, listen, keep listening)

(Hear me, hear me, listen to me)

(Look, look, keep looking for me)

I am the ghost of your past love

Fear me not, but always love me

there's one line in my poem that said "..I love you so much and it hurts me"...this work of yours was far better though...
you're such an inspiration...

Love doesn't suck... :)

But I love the imagery I get from reading this.
