Living with your ghost
I saw you today
I smiled
Actually laughed
You were walking down the road
Right in the middle
No shoes
Short jeans skirt
Yelling at the cars
Hair all over
Dirty feet
You didn’t care
Not a bit
Not a care in the world.......
of course
I know
It wasn’t really you
In fact
It couldn’t have been you
It was just me
Missing you
Wishing you were still here.
It’s Been years now
And I know I have thought about you every day
Some just in passing
Some drowning in the memories....
I still drive by places we would go
I see you
In those memories
laughing
Being you
The you I love and miss so much.
And
Though it hurts
The beauty is
that you still exist in those memories,
That you are still alive in my heart....
