She Became a Ghost to Herself at 15

From Counterfeit Freedom by Roland F. Stoecker Jr (author's profile)

Transcription

- She became a ghost to herself at 15 -

July's heat
beats down upon me
as I struggle through the pain
you left behind.
Hells sweet water
can't taste as bitter
as the love
you left upon my cracked lips.
Tear ducts
spill blood
no tears left.
can't you hear my screams for you to stop?
let me take one last look
into your eyes.
I know what I'm looking for
I've got a sick feeling
The doors to your soul was closed
the whole time I love you.

Roland
