I Don’t Believe In Ghosts

-a poem-

I don’t believe in ghosts

But there’s a feeling in the air

I don’t believe in ghosts

But my past follows me everywhere

I don’t believe in ghosts

And yet I’m quaking in fear

I can’t outrun this

Who could forgive this

My head tells me I’m redeemed

My heart screams “how can that be”

I know all these things but sometimes trust comes harder

Being let down has made me ponder

I know I should trust

I know I can

But the ghost still haunts

“When the past comes back to haunt you”
