If I close my eyes to try and make a wish,
I become distracted by your lingering touch.
Its almost as if I titled my head enough it would land on your shoulder
The one id give anything to cry on again
Even tho many of those tears were caused by you.
Its so hard trying to continue through my life hoping ill find my perfect fit
when no one has come close to holding me the way you did
Soothing me the way you could
Make me forget the world around us and just want every second to be about us
And its ridiculous
Pathetic really
So many others have come after you and here I am still dreaming
Even while in another bed
Even in my own
So what was it?
How did you do this to me?
You weren't anything out of the ordinary
You weren't any god or angel
But how were you so perfect for me?
On the nights I miss you, I rather lie awake than regrettably dream of you
That can explain my lack of sleep and the lack of luster on my face
Im simply chasing after your ghost
But the thing about ghosts is
They can never be tied down
And neither could you
At least, not by me
I wish you could hold me one more time so I could remember just what a perfect puzzle felt like
And how someone that I never knew became my world
And it can happen again
