Ghosts of Us

A Conversation that Never Ends

By PSYGENIUSPublished 12 months ago 1 min read

At night, I sit in the quiet air,

Speaking to you, though you're not there.

Your ghost feels close, yet out of reach,

A shadow of love no words can breach.

The neighbors pass, their doors stays closed,

No one wonders how I've composed

A life so silent, so full of ache,

A heart that beats only to break.

I hold your photo, trace your smile,

Dreams of the days we laughed awhile.

This home, once warm, now feels so cold,

Empty memories, stories untold.

Oh, my love, why did you part,

Leaving a void within my heart?

I'm lost without you, and time won't heal,

This loneliness, this pain, is all I feel.
