Nel mio letto lascio sempre un po' di spazio per te, anche se non ci sei. E ogni volta spero di svegliarmi e trovarti qui, anche se so che non è possibile.

Però il posto accanto a me lo lascio libero lo stesso. Non si sa mai.

Can ghosts dream?

I can feel you,

whenever I'm trying to sleep, you're all I see.

It doesn't matter if my eyes are open,

you're right in front of me.

Kinda shady but I can tell it's you

I'd recognize you anywhere.

Even now, that you're dead.

It's funny, isn't it?

How yesterday we were making plans for the future

and the future is yet to come,

but you're not here anymore.

But you're with me, here

As a ghost, or something like that,

And I wonder every single day,

if everything will stay the same.

Will we continue our dreams?

Or should I walk this journey alone?

Challenge
Make me a metaphor
Compare yourself to something strange, not usually used in a metaphor. like, I dont know, a worm, or a lego brick, I dont know! The possibilities are endless!

Windows

I can replace a painting.

If the view outside is good enough for it.

Through me, you see if it’s raining

or if it’s a sunny day,

I won’t interfere.

You can hide me,

if you don’t think I’m pretty enough for your living room.

Or you can wide open me,

and take all the joy I can give to you.

The bugs will enter, perhaps

Are you ready to deal with them?

If not.

Keep me closed and never touch me again.
