The ghost

When tears fall off your cheeks

As you taste the salt of the earth

On your own lips

When you suffer in silence

Looking into the shadow

Of your former self 

When you walk along the street

As it is so quiet in the dark

There goes your self 

When the pit of your stomach

Is in the sea

There you are

When you walk along these sands 

Along the beaches of time

Into the sea of death 

There you are

The ghost
