fading memories
from childhood eyes
is all i have now
to remember you by
and sometimes it seems
you do not exist
just an idea in my head
surrounded by a hazy mist
longing for you to offer your hand
but years go by
and you never make a stand
many times i have reached out
but my words and feelings
you never comprehend
so if we both never meet
on the road up ahead
i have come to realize
you will always remain
no more than a
ghost in my head
