The ghost of you still haunts my days,
A phantom limb, a lingering gaze.
Our fractured bond, a shattered pane,
Reflecting loss, and endless rain.
I know I erred, my flaws laid bare,
But can’t you see I truly care?
I’ve changed, I’ve grown, I’ve learned the cost,
Yet still I cling to what is lost.
Why can’t you see beyond the past?
Forgive the hurt, let healing cast
A balm upon the wounds we share,
And mend the rift with loving care?
My mind replays each cherished scene,
Our laughter shared, a joyful sheen.
But memories mock, a cruel embrace,
A constant ache, an empty space.
I know I should move on, forget,
But your shadow lingers, a silhouette.
Obsessed, I trace your every line,
A prisoner of this love of mine.
Release me, please, from this despair,
Or grant me one more chance to share
The person I have come to be,
And find redemption, set me free.
