Replying to a comment on:
ghost host (Free verse) by elderking
Running witless from the shadows
and familiar images of you;
hiding breathless, as my heart slows,
wondering what I'll ever do
you're lurking everyplace I go;
you haunt me tirelessly.
will I ever finally know
how to flee your memory?
closing eyes to your reflection,
closing ears to siren's song,
hasn't severed our connection,
our yesterday's proved too strong.
so many nights I've spent sleepless,
keeping company with your ghost.
the dawns are nearly countless
when a dead man serves as host.
