I am haunted by the ghost of someone who’s still alive
I get scared watching horror movies at night, and the fear grows stronger when I turn off the lights. I imagine ghosts lurking in the dark, waiting to slip into my dreams and leave their mark. But that fear fades away after a day or two, like a passing nightmare. Yet, the haunting of you lingers, fresh and uninvited, a constant weight that never truly leaves. You’re not a ghost, not a creature from a nightmare, but your presence stays with me in a way that feels so unfair, so unrelenting. I tried to bury the past, to forget the pieces of you that once felt so real, but they refuse to let go. Your memory haunts me in the quiet moments, a shadow that never fades, always lurking in the back of my mind. It’s as if you’re still here, alive in my thoughts, making my heart ache every time I remember the warmth of your smile, the sound of your voice. You’re not gone, not in body or mind, and I’m left with the ghost of you that refuses to rest in peace. Every corner of my life feels like an echo of you, and no matter how hard I try, I can never escape your grasp.
