Yesterdays Ghosts

Yesterday’s Ghosts!


“Let it be”, Is what goes through my mind,
How can I? Cos it’s all so unkind.
Why do I look for Yesterday’s Ghosts?
They are the things are want to forget the most!

Mixed emotions pinches my heart,
Lies and deception has set us apart.
Yesterday’s Ghosts are back to haunt me,
I’m in its clutches, unable to break free!

It’s not where I want to be though!
But an uncertain eternity has filled me so.
I do want to get rid of Yesterday’s Ghost-
But the pain, o’ the pain, has filled its host!
