The Ghost of Me

The Ghost of Me

A Poem by J.B.D
"

I thought it sounded pretty in a way...

"

You stupid, arrogant boy

I have tried to run from you

In oh so many ways

 

I have disappeared from this hungry world

Yet here you are standing with that grin

Happy to see me

 

You have shattered me

Genocide my dreams

I have become a ghost it seems

 

Can’t you see what you have done to me?

Don’t you know why I run from you constantly?

Is this what you want me to be?

 

A ghost it seems

A ghost it seems

 

You have grown with happiness

As I simply drown

 

Trust me you once whispered

As I merely frowned

 

How is it you smile at me

With those eyes

Greener than mine

 

You annoying, cunning beast

I have tried to fade away

In oh so many means

 

I have disappeared from this hungry world

Yet here you are standing with that grin

Happy to see me

 

I am broken

No longer asleep

I have become a ghost it seems

 

Can’t you see what you have done to me?

Don’t you know why I run from you constantly?

Is this what you want me to be?

 

A ghost it seems

A ghost it seems

 

Yes, it’s true

A meek shadow among you

Dying like my dreams

 

A ghost it seems

A ghost it seems
