whispers defiance and ghosts

"please don't let me love you
i don't want to feel you anymore"
she said looking at me smiling
her hands reaching for the door
her words turned into whispers
suffering smothered in her tone
it once was a voice of defiance
now trembles at being alone
i'll just sit at my piano singing
songs that comfort her shade
repeating her name in echos
while i feel the memories fade
layers fall away from nothing
a specter, a spirit, or a ghost
i'll disappear, no one'll find me
exactly what i feared the most
