Ghost of you

LoveRemembered

 You wander the corridors of my mind
Dragging your rattling chains of lies.
Rarely seen, always present you haunt
The back of my mind, till, one day,
Your chains catch a memory, snare a sense.
Sight, sound, smell, taste, touch.
One by one they tumble down
Revealing you just as clear as yesteryear.
The sight of a letter, the sound of a lighter,
The smell of soap, the taste of smoke,
The feel of love is all it takes to
Open this pandora's box of hurt.
These demons, fears, memories, maladies
Fall from these innocent eyes as tears
Like raindrops upon broken window panes.
And just for a moment a storm rages within
The dark, flimsy confines of my mind.
Lightning strikes, thunder claps
And I cower waiting for the sun to shine.
Then just as silently and carefully as it all began,
It drifts away, leaving but an empty, heavy hole
In this steadily beating, passionless heart
And the faint feeling of déjà-vu.
And through these fragile, precocious windows
They will only glimpse the ghost of you.
The hazy glimmer that lights up my eyes.

I know the poem's really sad and everything but the one thing that came to my mind when I read this was that it was beautiful...
I loved it.
