Aftermath
I’ve had enough. Begone, the evil ghost!
Stop haunting me, I know it’s all over.
I know that any hope is now
lost.
I know this trail is leading
me to nowhere.
I don’t know what it was that
I did wrong.
I tried my best. I cared. I…
surrendered.
I hoped it’d help, forefeeling
was so strong.
It was for nothing. Loss by any standard.
Began with wonder. Ended
with a nightmare.
My happiness has been
ridiculously short.
I only could respond with
quiet “Bye, then”.
What was the crime I’m being
punished for?!
***
Since that, I’m desperately
trying to forget.
I run through days in search
of the oblivion.
But still I see around a ghost
of what is dead,
Recalling times when dreams
have still been living.
I can’t accept it. I just
cannot let it go.
I still am in pursuit of
hollow fruitless hope.
I have to stop it. How? I
really do not know.
I simply feel I’m sliding down
an endless slope.
I’m trying to collect myself,
and I just fail.
Sad feelings overcome all my
resistance.
I wish I managed to find some
kind of way
To get me out of
mournful, sorrowful existence.
***
I will forget my dreams. I
will erase my hopes.
The shadows of the past will
disappear.
I will find out the things
that future holds.
It’s sad that when I’ll do,
you won’t be here
To share it with
me. You’ll go with someone else.
This is the fate that you have
now chosen.
It’s done, forever. We will
follow separate ways.
It is quite hard but I’ll
concede. Life goes on
And has its fair share for
each one.
That’s all. I’m free, and evil
ghost is gone.
