Phantom of Me

Plaguing my mind
Everyday, every moment,
You speak to me.

Filling my dreams
Each night I sleep,
You come to me.

Appearing throughout
My life-long journey,
You look for me.

Answering my thoughts
When none are shared,
You whisper to me.

Sharing my songs
That ears can't recall,
You sing to me.

Hearing my plea,
Refusing to listen,
You humble me.

Pretending to know
My deepest longings,
You encourage me.

Refusing my friendship,
Acting as though true,
You hurt me.

Smiling as my body
Walks zombie-like over,
You confuse me.

Playing my emotions,
I admit my attraction;
You kill me.
