It’s hard to swallow lyrics
You wrote but don’t accept
Because though you left me empty
Doesn’t mean you fully left

And people went and people stayed
But the stain was not removed
And they say it’s better letting go
But it feels like it’s too soon

So I’ll stay here in the clearing
Where I’m hoping to be found
Though outside I’m optimistic
I doubt you would come around

Somewhere out there in the forest
You are walking with the ghosts
They might prey on your attention
But it is I who craves it most

In a cold dark room,
There is you and me.
Whispers are hollow,
As the air we breathe.
I touch your surface -
Here comes the surprise.
Faint light emerges,
From your hands and eyes.
My fingers pass through,
As though I’m a ghost.
I am a shadow,
And your light - the host.

My mind is a castaway in the black sea
Where emotions crash and clash like waves
My soul is a hurricane in the tropic scene
Where destruction brews but soon will fade
My heart is the night when the clock strikes three
Where I say, “The dark consumes,  but I’m yours to save.”
