Haunted

 

I’m afraid

I guess things don’t stay

There when you wanted

It to stay

Like when your heart is a cupboard

Then things get misplaced

You can‘t remember where they are

You can’t remember what they are

You miss them

But you don‘t know them

You don’t even know yourself

Maybe you’re just acting brave

Or reckless, or spontaneous

Or loveless, or humorous

You don’t know what they think of you

Like you don’t know you were blue

Was I though?

Yeah, maybe

It was tough

Who’s the baby?

Do you even need one?

Are you that pathetic?

Your mom sends you a man

Doesn’t that send you a panic?

Well, like everything else in your life

Like how everything gives you that vibe

That you’re up and down but alive

Your feelings can’t be bribed

But those sparks you can’t see

The happiness, even if it was short-lived

They color the blue sea

Brightness, you feel refilled

Like for once boundaries were gone

Life was once more a blessing

But when these people were gone

Life was no more than me struggling

But damn you and your smile

You haunt me from a mile
