Ghost forevermore

I heard your screeching

throughout the chorus of

that song we called ours.

I loathed remembering you

And I played it even louder.

My dearest phantom wind,

I can’t help but follow your breeze.

To the trees you call and so I follow.

I delight in the chase that begets.

The sweetest memories you infiltrate.

I sense you hovering amongst all.

I shatter mirrors and I shun

The darkest corners to avoid you.

My heaviest shadow,

You creep along, seething your prey,

Hoping I never forget.

Please, show me light.

You slithering might.

Draped in dreary cloth, oh they thought.

Your silhouette creeps me every night.

In every form, I know you’re there.

You remind me what is haunted

and you beg me to your mist.
