Mizuki Ashiya Poet Rhyme

Remains

You're just a ghost
But your voice still haunts me the most
You made my heart race
with feelings i can't replace 
I stand face to face
with your ghost I hallucinate

I miss your touch 
Your hands
Your face
I miss your warmth
Your feelings
I can't replace
you were my light
But...
You left without a fight
You fade into night
now I'm never alright

You're just a ghost
But your voice still haunts me the most
I reach for you, but you fade again
Why am I the one who remains

You flicker away
a smoldering flame
You pass me like time
Stealing my rhyme
losing rhythm 
losing touch
missing the way
you made me rush

Why did you leave when I still stayed
Why did you heal what you couldn't save
Why do I beg for a ghost that won’t stay
Why am I the one who remains
Why
why
why
I lost myself to time
Like loving you was a crime

You're just a ghost
But your voice still haunts me the most
I reach for you, but you fade again
Why am I the one who remains

I got used to your love
But you're a distant star
high above
You lit rooms I knew well
And darkened the rooms I felt
You numbed my pain
You cleared the rain
But now...
 I can't contain

Subtle actions to keep your light
A kiss, a cuddle, those gentle nights
Vivid dreams where we don't fight
But you can't see it
But it's still there
And it hurts, drowns me in fear
Numb from the fact
That you're not here

Why must I suffer
WHY must I hurt
Why must I be dragged through dirt

You lit my world
not once but twice
Just another glance will suffice
It's not your fault
Would echo in my mind
Like the subtle thoughts
I just can't find

You make me yearn
You make me ache
Like an echo in a cave
But
You're the ghost I just can't save

Like a worn light flickers out
You're the ghost I can't live without
Like your subtle shadow quiets my name
Your echoing voice makes me feel its name

You're just a ghost
But your voice still haunts me the most
I reach for you, but you fade again
Why am I the one who remains

You left a mark
A fallen shade
All you left...
Was the regret you made
