Ghosts

It's 3am and
I can't fall asleep
These memories
Dance on the ceiling
I feel something rise
From a graveyard in my mind
I toss and turn
Put on all the lights
I'd rather stay up all night
Than have to face what's underneath there
I'm scared to wake the dead
So I'll let those lonely shadows rest
They don't belong here
I'll give them to the night
No these ghosts
Won't haunt me tonight
It's 4am and
My skin is shivering
I walk outside
To feel the starlight
Pale figures appear
At the edges of the trees
I stand my ground determined to fight
Suddenly I see
These ghosts are part of me
Wandering, yearning
It's time to wake the dead
Bring back those parts of me
I left, hungry and broken
Hiding from the light
Now I know love can bring them back to life
