Run the shower
I need to wash off the memories

your touch still imbibed in my skin
from your embrace
your gentle caress
your beautiful scent

I'm so in love with you
but you're the forbidden fruit
that I cannot possess

I wish you could guide me in the darkness
to the light at the end
but I will stay inside this cave

I wish you could stop running marathons
in my head
and come back beside me instead

whilst I've been planting trees
you set alight to my forest

you've been travelling my world
whilst I've been locked away

run the shower
because I need to wash away your ghost
