The Ghost in my Playlist
<p>The difference between us is quiet,</p><p>but it cuts deep.</p><p>When you play sad songs,</p><p>you think of a boy,</p><p>a love story that went wrong,</p><p>a heart that cracked but still beats.</p><p>When I play sad songs,I see a ghost.</p><p>The one death stole from me</p><p>with hands so cold,</p><p>I still feel the chill in my bones.</p><p>You hear lyrics and remember someone’s voice.</p><p>I hear them and remember silence.</p><p>You think of love that left.</p><p>I think of life that refused to stay.</p><p>I think of every failure</p><p>that whispered you shouldn’t still be here,</p><p>and how perfect the world might have been</p><p>if my final attempt had worked.</p><p>We are not the same.</p><p>The storm you are stepping into,</p><p>I have lived inside it.</p><p>Been drowned and dragged out,</p><p>only to be thrown back in.</p><p>Life did not spare me its lessons.</p><p>It carved them into my skin,</p><p>one scar for every nameable pain.</p><p>And now I carry them all,</p><p>like ghosts that refuse to let go,</p><p>like songs that never stop playing.</p>
