phantoms

if I ever get to see you again
I swear I'll do my best to pretend
that I have been fine
without you all of these years

and you left without saying
goodbye
and it wasn't even doing so well

I never got to say
I am sorry
you are still here
stuck to the left side of my brain for a lifetime

and I know life goes on
but how can I go on
if unsaid things will hold me back
haunt my late nights forever?
