The Phantom of My Mind
Concealed behind my thoughts
You use my emotions to control me
Memories are a part of your ruse
You trap me in my dreams
Haunting me
What is it you seek wraith?
Is it my failure you wish to exploit?
Are you a figment of hope in my head?
Why do I want you here?
I miss you
You keep me up at night
restless ghost
You look just like her, sound like her
But, you are not
My internal eternal illusion
That is all you are
Please, get out of my mind
Like a god you're ambient in my brain
My own cognitive Labyrinth, I'm lost
You're my muse, my phantom
Of the mind
