GHOST
I know that you mourned me
That cold autumn day
You stood tall and stoic
As is always your way
One hand on your hat
As you battled the wind
One hand on your heart
To hold the grief in
But I witnessed you stumble
As you walked down the aisle
And I felt all your tremors
As my coffin passed by
And you couldn't hold it
For when they laid me to rest
Such heartwrenching sobs
From your grief stricken breast
How I longed then to hold you
To gather you close
To let you know somehow
That I'm not dead, just ghost
That I will never leave you
I will remain with you here
And at the hour of your death
I will reappear
And I wish I could soothe you
With physical love
But I can't, so I hover
So near, just above
I'm not dead
Just ghost.

Hello Marion...
I'm going to be a lot fun...
I'm not going to be the hovering type...
I don't have that kind of a spirit...
I'm more of the tap and dash type...
Great write!
Thank you for sharing...
Hugs...

Lol...I'm going to be exactly THAT kind of spirit and cause as much mischief as I can ????
Thankyou SD...most of the stuff I write tends to be sad, iv no idea why but I'm still working on happy!?
Ditto. Yes sad stuff is beautiful, it touches the soul. I find it therapeutic also...writing poetry seems to help me deal with my up and down random emotions, also I read loads and I figure all the words that go in have to come out somewhere...lol ??
Kindred spirits!?
Β Very sad and beautifulΒ
Thankyou Sarah xx
