A Ghost

I live with Ghosts
I see her
In the corner of my eye

I live with a Ghost
She cries
And I try to shut her away

I Live with Ghosts
Memories
I just can't forget

I Live with a Ghost
Why is it
She has to look so much like me?

in the city night

in the city night,
you can hear the tram tracks singing
long before the beast shows up.

in the city night,
you can hear the long, lonely sighs
of ads changing on displays.

in the city night,
sea ice gathers to recite choral lullabies
to ears that cannot hear.

my city never sleeps soundlessly;
silent are only the beating hearts and
vibrating vocal chords
of the creatures of the day.

yet,

ads shine,
without minds to saturate;

trams roll on,
without legs to rest.

in the city night,
mine are the only ears listening;
mine, and the quiet fox,
who nervously leads me to the morning.

Is It Just Memories

I see it again
It's like yesterday
I hear those sounds
Somehow I know them
That touch, that taste
They're all the same
Am I dreaming?
Reliving today in my bed?
Those thoughts, those words
I've had them, read them before
It's tiring knowing these things already
But experiencing them again in different colors
Love, loss, heartache, sorrow, death
Wrenches my insides like a stale ale
New, this is what I need
New ideas, new feelings
Shock me, make me weep with joy
Make me laugh in madness
Disturb me, thrill me
Is that so wrong to wish for?
I need to stop these dreams
Or maybe
I need to forget these memories

Just another tear

Its just another tear my darling,
Sliding down your cheek
as you pick up the remote and
shut the TV with a click

and the dark that fills it all
seems so thin and frail
as you close your eyes in silence
and allow your thoughts to trail

and its just another tear my baby
crashing on the floor
as you hear the night outside
and then the closing door

yes, just one last tear, my love
falling from your eye
as I close this door forever
without saying goodbye
