My Ghost

“Darling, I’m lost without you.
You left me here in the darkness.”

Darling, I’m lost without you. Because, every time, I turn to you, and you’re like a ghost. I feel like I lost a limb when you left me in the darkness. And the hardest part is that you probably don’t even know what you’ve done.

And maybe that’s what you are. My ghost.

You broke my heart.
