Ghost

i sift with eyeless admiration
i sieve your layers through and through
i feel with starving fixation
i have a need i must subdue

and i see from you afar
and i select you
and i breathe you from afar
and i collect you

i have unhealthy adoration
your something i can’t ever have
i stir in total desperation
without you here i know i’ll snap

and i know you from afar
and i dissect you
and i keep you from afar
and i protect you

i can’t take this ache
it’s more than i can take
this is all one big mistake
if i can’t fly i will break

i see from you afar
and i select you
i want you from afar
and i collect to you
