Ghosts

Ghosts
Why is that I see you
when my bed is lonely at night
Why is it that I see you
in the first rays of morning light

One year ago you left me
but your ghost still lingers on
Shadowing and haunting me
in a heartbreak that's there each dawn

Not a day goes by still
when I don't think about you
You were all that I treasured
and now I know not what to do

People say to forget you
to move on with my own life
But they don't understand
the agony of my strife

Moving on is not a question
when you were embedded in my heart
And all I ache and long for
is for us to no longer be apart

You were my every fantasy
my every waking dream
I had everything I cherished
until it fell apart at the seems

And like a ghost you haunt me
with memories so tender and sweet
That nothing can diminish
the agony of loves defeat
