Just a Ghost
Location
They say if you see someone you used to care a lot about
with someone else and you get jealous
that the feelings never really went away.
There’s a time and place for everything,
and maybe
sometimes it’s not the right timing…
but you wonder when the timing will or would ever be right.
You can’t dwell on the past
wishing things could have happened differently.
Everything happens for a reason
we usually don’t know that reason until later.
People change.
Sometimes we are stuck caring about the person they used to be,
the person they were when you were with them.
Sometimes we are stuck watching them
live their lives from afar,
living their lives without us
as if we never made an imprint in their life,
wondering if our time with them was even worthwhile.
You build this story in your mind
how your life would be if they were still around.
Then reality hits you in the face
your life continues without them.
