Right Through

I looked right through a ghost today

I’d like to think she doesn’t haunt me

But that’s a lie I tell myself

Judging by the way I’m feeling

Knowing that I passed right by

And all the baggage that used to be

Keeps piling right back on my mind

The love I used to hold so close

The bitter anger that developed

The apathy I wrapped around me

The painful lack of understanding

That broken soul once left these here

I fought so long to shake them off

And now with just a moment’s gkanxey

I find them crushing me anew

I hope the spirit’s sleeping well

With all the anguish that she’s brought me

May she never know the trutb

Of just how much she got to me

The place she’ll likely always hold

A nightmare I played part in making
