Today walking into class I see A *** of flowers just for me Standing lonely on my desk This picture of me becomes grotesque
Weeping, crying, fake little eyes Mournful silences in disguise People I have barely knew Fill up my ghostly view
I see you sitting alone thinking thinking you should atone But that accident is not your fault I say and say, yet you do not halt.
You mourn for me in dangerous grief Will you give yourself no relief? You don on black for days to come Your smiling face is now all glum
"Smile for me will you please?" "Do not let your heart just freeze.' "I may be gone but you are not." "You know this isn't what I sought."
Yet the cries of a ghost go unheard You do not hear my desperate words Weeks and months you only grieve Your sullen tears wet your sleeves
Will you not forgive yourself? My book was long off theshelf. You have yet to live and see your story. You have yet to witness your own glory
You know I did not want this. Don't you realize there's something amiss The past is there and it's certainly sad Yet being stuck in the past is also quite bad.
I do not want to be remembered this way Staining your whole life in just tone grey Remember me in a bittersweet memory And let yourself be finally free.
Please remember
I am dead but you are not Do not let your life just rot
I am dead but you are not. I am dead. You are not.
Please, Will you just forgive yourself? I do not want to see you in pain any longer.
A small poem about a ghost who has yet to move on for simple reasons. I felt it might be interesting to convey the feelings of a ghost who felt great emotional attachment to someone and cared for this person deeply. Becoming hurt that they were hurt.
