The ghost appears once a day,
it happens when i’m alone
same ghost,
yet every time they seem to shrink

I can’t explain it
but when they visit I feel free

Yesterday they were so small
I barely knew they were there

Today there’s no sign
yet I don’t feel so alone,
but I do wonder
did I do something wrong?

I saw her through my window
whilst watching the rain fall
She just stood there for a while
and let it all wash over her

The cold crept inside her bones
till she felt nothing but numb

The rain changed her
and I wish
I was not at the window,
but dancing in the rain

Light was drained as darkness grew
Revealing each shining star
Each used to map out the future

The moon gives a subtle glow
Providing comfort while we lay awake
For it’s such a pleasure to bask in its glory

You could stare at the sky everyday
and still you would not see everything it has to offer
