Drifting through my cemetery of hope,
The hollow remnants of a dream cowering within my mind,
The night draws near and the air runs cold;
It seems that the end is something I will finally find.
Ghosts of smiles and laughter cannot comprehend this evil within;
Not even I recognise the girl in the mirror.
A life long lost,
A life of horror.
Echoes of words and things left unsaid taunt me in my dreams,
If I can wake from those, why can't I escape from my living nightmare?
I long for the comfort I seldom receive,
Longing for a joy that is oh so rare.
I am but a ghost of my former self.
I often feel despair
But never feel cheer.
I oftentimes cry
But cannot laugh no matter how hard I try.
I don't like much of anything
But I don't have the energy to hate a thing.
I am just melancholy itself.
My ghost haunts me day and night,
Forcing me to remember the things I have lost.
No more happiness, no more love;
Just me and this cold frost.
