HAUNTED HOUSE

Trying to erase a person who made such an impact on your life...

How can I not remember the first day I met you ?

How can I erase the first time we made love?

Am I crazy to think those moments were more then real ?

Haunted house trapped...

All my worst fears are here with me...

Reality greets me...

Welcomes me in and sits me down..

Loneliness pours me a cup of life...

Hard gulp to swallow...

Seeing them with you...

Hating me not being in their place !

Ripping pictures...

Throwing dishes...

What about me and my wishes ?

How do you release this pain ?

Trying to get out of this house !

The blinds are shut ...

No sunlight in...

The projector comes down ...

And the movie starts !

We are the stars...

Scratch that ...

Someone's taking my place !

Running up to get a closer look ...

Looking around , who would do such a thing ?

Walking to the next room , I see ghosts !

Am I dreaming ?

They are replaying our moments !

On the bed they lay , I touch the bed ...

You never noticed !

You look so happy ...

Happy with me...

Are you with me ?

Is this my mind playing tricks on me ?

Turning around to look into the closet ...

All your clothes with your scent ...

Climbing in bed with your shirt on...

Feels like we were here before ?

No screaming , no yelling...

Boy if these walls could talk...

Our secret would be out !

See you from time to time...

And when I think I'm over the shit...

You pull me back in...

I just can't win...

I hate you all over again !

Being trapped in this haunted house...

I can feel you here...

But this house use to be so happy !

This house use to be so us...

This house use to make you smile...

This house use to be ours...

Guess that's something I'm dealing with now...

Words echo into a scream...

These walls have traces of your hand prints...

The floor is stained with your presence...

I can feel that you let go ..

And maybe I should to ...

But who wants a haunted house ?
