Ghost

What happened to us

We used to be so close

But now you just walk by me like a ghost

And the heart that used to connect us

Beats as silent as a drum

It makes me cry

I cannot lie

To think that once you said you loved me

Was it just untrue

Those words you spoke

Saying that this love would last forever

And the more and more I think

The closer to the brink of an abyss

I come

Fearing falling or being swallowed by it

But far better to try

To just walk on by

For feeling this pain too deeply

Will mean that life can no longer sustain me

And my friend I need to live

For this emptiness will surely kill

If don’t find some way to fully fill

My being with the joy that was stolen

When my heart lay broken

After our parting
