Music. 
I think I hear it
But I know I can't


Because admitting that I hear it would be giving in
Surrendering to the fact that you aren't completely gone from my life


It hurt knowing you're gone
But it would hurt more knowing you're back


Phantom music
Like the itching missing limb of an amputee


Wishful thinking
Perhaps

  3. What a week!!! After a week like that, the only option you have is to fall into a dreamless sleep for three days.

  4. I haven't lost anyone quite like that. Grandpa was more memory than music. And I never had my girl so I haven't really lost her. I guess it's just my own music that I hear, haunting me because it's not something else and it's been the same forever yet doesn't hold any memory. It's a timeless ocean that batters against me, hoping to kill before a saving current sweeps me off to shore or a wind of imagination blows me off course into seas of lunacy and insanity. Jesus loves you! =)

I love hearing things that aren't my own pathetic echoes.
