you’re a ghost
not only in my dreams
torment my flesh
all I can do is weep
you know I didn’t want to
but I loved you
what a dire sin
you’ll be whispering words of apology
even when you’re throwing earth on me
you live in a hollow
believing in its felicity
if you had given me euphory
you would’ve given me my wish
you know I didn’t want to
but I believed you
what an unwordly scene
you were the choice I never made
even when I’ve had such gallantry
your intentions were made up
your love was cut and dried
what am I to you if not merely blood?
and I could only feel you around
if you show me something familiar
though I see the town you find pieces of me
off the road, to the cliffside, calamitous times
I can’t see why it would remind you of me
I was your french girl out of a period film
you’d call me that with your deceiving stare
Isn’t it strange now that you won’t recall my face?
and I could only recall you when you’re leaving?
I’ve been wanting to say congratulations
my old man you’ve been a paragon of my misery
