Ghost love

There are captures held to calm a soul to be found


Every day we see and believe all we are told


Fold a paper and read expect found


Lonely leaves a void to be filled


As we read anyplace is real as the need


 


 


She asked me to make a clicking sound


She told me to a memory I was bound


She looked into my eyes


You cannot get better till


She dies


 


A mind that is wishes upon day long gone


A song that is wishes


I safe at last at home


Holding something as special as time


And it is a gift left in my mind


 


Warm and pretty as a polished stone


I have taken from one to a new home


A place in tribute to rest and faith


I found it before it was too late


 


 


 


If you want me to stay


Just lay your head before me


As time measures today


I am the wilder side of fate


I have been here waiting


 


It was always some else you saw


I practice love hidden in your walls


No burden is ever left unheard


No promise in given in words


 


We are just a soul in the night


Lovers of another time


To frightened to take flight


Arms holding empty


 


Wishes in a mind


Shadows lonely


Rest against time


Feelings come to view


 


I miss and want you so here we are unable to comply


Just whispers in the darkness


As cold and lonely we both lie


Me dead in the ground


And you dead inside


 


As I reach for something on a deserted beach


A breach of places lost in time I seek


Warm feelings and scent in the air


Squirrels babbling about someone not there


In a turn a voice I see like a picture old it’s me


This is not possible my heart skips past real


And for moment all of you I feel


Passion and pleasure mixed to grieve


For thought I captured a moment


I know you must leave


 


There are markers in places that we have been


And trails of life I see now and then


A whisper in the trees


A passing of perfume


You come to me and comfort give


In the mental state I am in


You live yes you live
