Ghost

At first I saw it
From the corner of my eye
A glimpse of someone
I thought had died
I knew deep down
This can't be true
A ghost from the past
And it looks like you

An imagined touch
The weight of a hair
Electric bristles
Icy chill etched the air
A long lost smell
Drifts high along stars
Memories haunt you
Silhouette in your scars

What is left after last breath?
A shadow, an image, a memory or myth
Everything once touched is gone
Nothing stops, the world moves on

I tried to save you
With all my might
You slipped from my fingers
You slipped from this life
Side by side
We'll fight 'til the end
A young life taken
Before it had a chance to begin

What is left after last breath?
A shadow, an image, a memory or myth
Everything once touched is gone
Nothing stops, the world it moves

What is left after last breath?
A shadow, an image, a memory or myth
Everything once touched is gone
Nothing stops, the world moves on
