Losing a Ghost

I see these pictures
that remind me of you
or at least the "you" I knew

A connection
severed long ago
Oh, how I strove
just to get it back

Years go by
with more distance between us
even though physically closer

I saw what you were
and what you've done to her
but I still mourn

Because I see these pictures
that remind me of you
or at least the "you" I knew

I loved you once
sister to brother
but you abandoned us
and we'll never know why

I guess that's just who you are
