Ghost of You

It's the ghost of you haunting me Walking around everywhere It won't let me be free Sneaking up in my good life Reminiscent of all the bad things I've ever done It's the ghost of you that whispers you're nothing without me everyone can see it yes even me It's the ghost of you popping up inconveniently in text messages in social media creeping along the fog the fog of my mind that has almost forgotten you and it like another land another time it's the ghost of you rattling my chains angering my inner self disrupting sleep it's the ghost of you the demon of you raining on my parade when will you fade away it lurks on the treadmill when I'm detoxing at the gym it creeps into my thoughts when i'm reflecting within is there a way to exorcise you castrate you annihilate you behead you like the llorona your voice echoes along bodies of water down the deep dark halls lingering in every space and across time haunting and lurking never in flesh it's the ghost of you that won't let me alone not even in my home
