The ghosts of the past are what keeps me awake at night. I close my eyes and can only hope that in time they'll disappear. Just like you did, then.
And so I run and try to keep up but it's never enough. Cause you are everywhere. No matter how hard I try.

Sad, isn't it? That I still care and wonder what could have been while you moved on without looking back. We both knew I would be the one with the broken heart this time but I never thought I would fall so fast and hard. Drowned in an ocean of memories, lost in a sea of tears.

You're the one ghost I tried to fight but never faded. The one who remains at the end of the day when all I wish is to let go and be free. Finally. So why can't you just let me?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The day we said goodbye you promised to never hurt me again.
You don't have to. Ghosts are forever.
