Ghost

There is something in the air Something I cannot see I feel the passing there She has been torn away from me Someone I cannot see

The day I lost her Feels like a dark stain Beside the house I wander In the fields of grain Just to escape the pain

Resting along side her bones I do, and do not Feel alone.
