I took some time alone today
as I so often do
I tried to think of other thoughts
but only thought of you.

I wanted time alone, you see
to dwell on your embrace
I tried to observe other things
but only saw your face.

you wouldn't leave my mind, you know
I know it wasn't much.
but every time I try to feel
I only feel your touch.

it wouldn't be a problem, but
now all you see is her
and all I am is nothing now
a ghost of what we were.
