Past and present

The ghost that haunts my halls,
Keeps me from loving the living.
Madness drives me to climb the walls,
Broken thoughts that are deceiving.

Those near me not accepting my death,
Trying to save me from something they cant see.
Wanting to let go of my last breath,
Their grip too tight never letting me wander free.

The present watching me with misplaced love,
Forgetting who she was before.
Kneeling and asking for help from above,
I don't believe she ready for what's in store.

My heart lays behind me in the past,
Can't let go of the love I have lost.
When will the day of misery be my last,
The present losing all at what cost?

She and I are linked in the lost love of another,
I cannot have and cannot give.
She cannot accept the loss my heart to the other,
My hands are like a sive.

Not able to hold the present how she deserves,
She not able to walk away from her own lie.
Her love is fear and without purpose to serve,
She forgets I make her weak and we both will die.

The past forever out of my reach,
The present broken.
Lost wanting to fall into the breach,
Where no more words spoken.
