You're still there, but
a long way off
Sometimes it's hard
to place your face.
I see straight through you
but where are you?
Your eyes, once alive
inside me
no longer haunt me
your words, echoing
around me
no longer touch me
It's goodbye at last
without tears
I'm laying the ghost
as the pain
disappears

I do like this Greta - isn't it great when you can finally lay something to rest - the realisation that the pain is not quite as acute as it first was

Nicely said in this short and to the point format, Greta, I like the finality of this, like it really is past tense, Zydha

Hi Zydha
 
 
 
Yes, sometimes economy with words offers the best vehicle for feelings I have found
