Ghosts On the Walls

I awake to the silence

He's gone and my heart breaks

Ghosts of us dance on the walls

A memory in every tear drop

Loneliness haunts me

I hear his voice on the wind begging me not to cry

Yet this sorrow haunts me as I breathe in the smell of him on the pillow

The pathway we made together grows cold as I walk it alone

I tell myself I can do this I can live witout his warmth

Without his tender caress on my face to reassure me

If he was my everything he was my very reason for breathing

Yet here I am taking a breath in and one out to carry on

I learn slowly to live without him

To close the door on my past dreams and find the strength to start new ones

The ghosts on the wall guide me onwards

from the dusty room I walk away and lock the door

I have to stop these tears and the pain in my heart

I will honour his love and respect his life by learning to smile again

A lesson I am starting to learn

That it isn't wrong to live when he is gone

The cold earth isn't where I belong but to walk beneath the sun and stars.

He will be eternally with me in my heart and mind

His hand will be there to guide me onwards and in my dreams I still can see his face

He was my all my perfection my first true love

Death called him to her arms and he left me

But here when I need him I shall find him and see his smile.
