Ghost

Raindrops,
Forming patterns on the rooftop,
A rhythm of the night,
Something I can sleep to,
But I wish you could sleep too,
But ghosts don't sleep,
Or talk, or eat, or breathe,
So I don't know what you need.

And I can feel you almost everyday,
At nights you walk through walls,
While I am stuck on one side,
Many of our old friends only know you,
While I am the glass that they look through,
And sometimes I look through me too,
And I see you,
Young, with a face of innocence,
And now you're just a ghost of me,
And I live in your shadow.
