Phantom Love



Phantom Love
By Nancy Rodriquez

You are my phantom love,
never are you seen,
yet are often thought of,
wherever you have been,
Not knowing where you are,
should I count my lucky stars?
If you have gone unto the beyond,
you can never break a heart again,
though these months have been long,
I would be happy to no longer be in pain,
you can not cheat in a prideful fall,
it would be as if you did not exist at all,
and I could move on at last,
not ever looking again at the past,
and the time I have put into you would be buried too,
