~ for everyone who is haunted by ghosts from their past. this one’s for you
burned
you said you never would
but you did
now my heart aches
like a melancholy soundtrack
i learn how to live again
without you by my side
i’m at a loss
i trust
i love
i breathe
i exist
and every beat of my heart
is a beat for someone i love too deeply
someone whose heart
doesn’t beat for mine
my blood is black and blue
the bruises im left with
not on my body
but in my soul
i travel to another dimension
one where we still
...exist…
but it’s just my dreams
and i awake
in the morning
lonely and sad
where i began
i don’t love you
you know it
so you bully me
till i can no longer speak
i step away
i save myself
what’s the point?
you made me feel broken
i lie awake in bed
i do every night
i can’t remember your face
but i recall your evil voice
you haunt my thoughts
in the dark,
in the light
i see your ghost
take me away
put me away
hide me away
from you
i’m scared
but really
what do
i do?
