Ghost

Ghost In the shadows of the night they roam, Silent specters, lost and alone, Whispering voices in the mind, Haunting thoughts that they can't unwind, Ghosts of memories from the past, Lingering pain that forever lasts, Echoes of sorrow, echoes of fear, Trapped in a cycle that's never clear, They wander through the corridors of the soul, Searching for peace, searching for control, But the darkness lingers, a heavy shroud, Trapping them in a suffocating cloud, Their presence felt but never seen, A ghostly presence, an eerie scream, They dance in the moonlight, they wail in the wind, A reflection of the turmoil deep within, Their cries are silent, their tears unseen, But their anguish cuts like a out of control stream, Through the heart, through the mind, Leaving scars that are hard to find, This specter of my past, a constant presence, A reminder of all that I have endured, A whisper in the shadows, a shadow in the light, A ghostly figure that is aching to teach me a lesson, I try to banish it, to cast it out, But it clings to me like a second skin, A burden that I cannot shake, i cannot win, A weight that drags me down, Can anybody hear me shout?.
