Blah

Ghost
I saw the ghost of you in the mirror today
Standing behind me like you always did
While I brushed my hair
I haven't seen you in so long
The ghost surprised me
Smiling like you always used to
I thought I would forget you
The way you kissed me
Feeling it on my lips even to this day

I saw the ghost of you in the kitchen today
Sitting at the table like you always did
While I made my breakfast
I haven't thought of you in so long
The ghost surprised me
Sipping coffee like you always used to
I thought I would forget you
Your voice echos in my mind
Haunting me even to this day

I saw the ghost of you in the living room today
Watching tv like you always did
While I read my book
I haven't heard from you in so long
The ghost surprised me
Laughing like you always used to
I thought you would disappear
Your goodbye on my ears
Making me cry once again.

Contrary
Contrary to what you may hear, I'm not a whore.
I'm a woman with strong values.
Contrary to what you may believe, I'm not a sociopath.
I'm a woman with many talents.
Contrary to what you may feel, I'm not a saint.
I'm a woman with countless faults.
Contrary to what you may see, I'm not a goddess.
I'm a woman with hidden blemishes.
I may not be who you think I am,
but at least I know the real me.
