Ghosts

The tender word forgotten
The letter you did not write
The flowers you might have sent
Are the ghosts haunting you tonight.

The special smile left unshown
The love that has grown old in might
The song you both loved
Those ghosts are haunting you tonight.

The gentle laugh you didn't release
The tears you couldn't fight
The happy times you shared together
The ghosts are haunting you tonight.

The times you turned away her comfort
The emotions she showed out of your sight
Her voice begging in vain for your love
These are the ghosts haunting you tonight.

Her gentle touch you never felt
Your sarcasm that now seems trite
The tears on her cheeks that you didn't see
Her ghost is haunting you tonight.
