Memories from the past haunt me
the ghost of an old love that lingers on
it has such a strong hold that I don’t know how to move forward away from the pain
where to begin to let go of a dream that was never meant to be
In my mind and in my heart all is perfect
saved in a folder in my mind that shows me so much love
void of the truth, that you left me here alone and crying
spending my days writing words, that I hope will bring you back to me
away from you my heart cries so mournfully
aching everyday for the loss of what could have been it’s companion heart
but you could only love me with half a heart, changing the essence of what could have been
I loved you with my whole heart and gave away, what I see now was in error
your half heart was pure but complicated and there was no bridge to me, to us
my whole heart was not enough to sustain us
For as soon as I gave it to you
was the exact moment I lost you
for you did not want to be my whole world
a pedestal you felt was so beyond you that you pushed and pushed
until the image was tarnished and you walked away from me, from us
But ode to that old ghost for you are never far from me
in a place, I can love you with all that I am
yet going forth with the knowledge that I can set you free
And keep just one thing for myself
a beautiful memory of what was
and not of what could be
