Cirrus

I feel her ghost watching me through the most beautiful passes
The ticking clock, stopped, and time still passes
The cirrus clouds upon these mountains
Memories we never saw, just a life we imagined

I never imagined this
Tears and mountains and cliffs
When I thought about this scene
I only ever imagined our dreams

These mountain slopes still give me hope
I know you're there, as I breathe this thinning mountain air
And I'm back home in this place we never lived
Except in the future we hoped

I'm sorry I never brought you back
But today, I'll be here with your ghost
