My Ghost

you are haunting me...

following my every step, my every thought

not allowing my mind, my eyes, nothing to wander

when I move, you follow

you are like my shadow

connected to my very soul

that one moment

the one that I cannot escape

it plays over and over in my mind

like the rhythm of my steps

right, left, right left

each moment, over and over

and yet I embrace my captivity

that vision of spender

that moment wrapped up in the delicious darkness

when only the moon and stars watched over us

that moment when you held me

when I felt your heart beating through your chest

somehow it moved in time with mine

your sweet scent that rolls off your skin

it is still warm in my nose

the moment our lips finally touched

how your gruff still prickles my face

how I could not help myself

tracing the hard line of your jaw with gentle fingers

silently intertwining them in your dark hair at the nape of your neck

you pulled away slightly after too short of a moment

and let out a grin that is forever etched into my mind

and then you were gone...

our moment destroyed by reality

for the knock came on my door and my eyes opened

the very edges of the dream disappeared

like sand on the edge of the beach...

reluctantly I must get up and answer reality's call

but I will be back to see you soon my dear

back in our world,
where you and I can be together
and nothing else matters
