Ghost Love

Can you let go of something dear to you?

Is that a lightning or just Zeus playing with his lightening bolt?

How can I tell? I am drunk on Noah's grape booze.

I am drunk, and all just seems blur

All I see is the world, taking a giant curve

The harp plays, it tries to find a soothing rhythm

I can't concentrate so who am I kidding

Is that my bed, or that of my mind?

Who cares, I lay on it, and the bed hugs me, it's so kind

My eyes attempt to close for the day

But the eyelid hold it at bay

After a long struggle, it gives up

It's all black now. Yes, there is a full-stop

The symbol widens and suddenly comes a light, so bright

From a circle, it takes a shape of a figure

A woman?

A lady?

An angel?

Hell yes

She comes closer, and thus it is she

The one that once left, not because she wanted

But because the reaper wrongly harvested

We talked and talked, and our lips got red

Ran out of saliva but still continued instead

With her I laugh so hard, as always

And she knew what bothered me, total replay

She told me of what the future holds

She told me of all that could wrongly unfold

I miss her, she missed me so much

Not like the latter days of childish infatuations

You have to move on, she pleaded

But how could I? I insisted

Have two hearts ever been meant for each other?

Have you had some girl treat you like a baby brother?

She was the perfect in perfection

She decides the time has finally arrived

She decided I had to let go,

My beloved, you need to find love again in the air

Living alone by yourself is something I can't bear

But no one can be to me what you are to me

With you I feel like the whole world is as sweet as ice cream

This is goodbye, my king, go make someone else your queen

For I have to go, never to be heard from again

But solemnly I promise, I will watch over you

Tears, coated in sulfur, fill my eyes

As she leaves gentle out of sight

I am in a state of total cataclysmic confusion

As my world crumbles in slow motion

I try to chase but held up in chains

She turns and says I will be there for you, both in times of pains

This is a strange goodbye, as it probably benefits both of us

And she is free from the world of the in-betweens

This brings an end to a journey

Or the continuation of my ideology

Somewhere she smiles down, totally happy

Now it's time for love to find me, tell Cupid to make it snappy.
