Ghost in Chains

by @jonas423

My ghost is still tied down to my body For she has no place to go Time passes by She still resides In the fragments of my soul. My ghost is still tied down to my body For I have no place to go But to wander Down memory lane The place where dead roses grow. My ghost is still tied down to my body For it has no place to go While the forest calls my name In the dark And pouring rain. My ghost is still chained to my body For I know not where to go Another's hands have stained my skin This reality is Not my friend. My ghost is forever chained to my body For I will never truly forget But I can bury your memory In bright embers And faded ash
