you were my queen, and i was to keep you close
now,
you're as distant as a hollow ghost.
i stare at these empty souls and know they could not compare,
all i want, is you to acknowledge the bond that we share.
i told myself "no" because i knew we shouldnt,
but now i see, even if we wanted to, we couldnt.

the first time i thought was just another phase
but now i grasp the meaning, reminding myself throughout my days.
