I am possessed by the ghosts of the people who loved me

  As they molded me they left finger prints behind

  And echoes of their lives still resonate in mine

  Is anyone ever really gone from this world

  When so much of them is left behind

  In the people they loved

  Aren’t we all possessed by the ghosts of the people who loved us

  How much of myself is there in me

  How much of me is just legacy

  Do we ever really leave this world

  When so much of us is left behind

  In the people we loved
