Ghost Light

Open my mouth

To speak

Nothing comes out

I don’t want you

To think that I don’t

Want you

We’re all afraid

Of the dark

We all believe

Ours is the weakest heart

I don’t want you

To think that I don’t

Want you

But nothing I could say

Would save the fading stars

So far away

I want to think that love

Conquers all

I want to say that hope

Helps at all

I don’t want you

To think that I don’t

Want you

There's a breaking

In the beating of my heart

Can't bear to watch the world

Fall apart

I don’t want you

To think that I don’t

Want you

Whatever I could say

Would it be the light from stars

That already died away?
