Shadow Ghost
Never in my life would I ever want to come back to a mistake like you—
Never once,
Never was,
Never am,
Never will.
You might have all the forever within grasp,
because you’re a ghost,
and ghosts have forever.
But not everyone is you,
not everyone is privileged with any next lifetime.
Time with you is a time wasted,
wasted with all of your over-glorified ghost—
that the devil himself is scared of you,
even your only shadow leaves you in the dark.
And there you are,
there you always will be;
Cast out alone in the void of darkness for eternity—
bequeathed with eternal guilt;
for you are nothing much,
but a mere shadow;
a ghost of the lingering past
(not) worth reminiscing.
What kind of person is stupid enough to come back to a mistake in a form of a human being?
