Ghost
Hold me tighter
Hold me close
Tell me your secrets
Haunt me, your ghosts.
Leave me lonely
Leave me, scarred
Take my breath
Take my heart.
Speak only lies
Speak only, hushed
Love me and leave me
Love me, then run.
Break my heart
Take it, too
Who needs a heart
No longer you.
Hold me tighter
Hold me close
Love me, leave me
Please be my ghost.
