Let Me Introduce Myself, I’m your Ghostwriter

Good evening lovely lady

You’ve no idea who I am,

I’ve watched you every day

You could say I’m a fan.

***

I watch as you wrestle

With painful emotions,

You refuse to give up

In awe of your devotion.

***

Writing helps you deal

With your random thoughts,

If it comes to nothing

You will happily abort.

***

I may do more than watch

When you are at a loss,

A word here or there

An exemplary idea I’ll toss.

***

Do you feel me here at all

Constantly beside you,

Putting pen to paper

Of feelings long overdue.

***

On more than one occasion

I’ve written the entire piece,

On that odd occurrence

The words exist on release.

***

You are shocked at the time

Of how easy that was to write,

You didn’t seem to even think

Yet your words flow in delight.

***

Did you ever really wonder

If you’d had a helping hand,

Instantly the perfect word

Penned on the page unplanned.

***

You read the words back

And it’s like they’re brand new,

Did they come from your pen

Doesn’t feel like it was you.

***

No my love, I am right here

Helping you on the side,

I’m your real ghostwriter

Coming along for the ride.

***

I had hoped you’d notice

That I’ve been here before,

I’ve knocked, I’ve yelled out

Almost beaten down the door.

***

So Colleen, let me say hello

And introduce myself to you,

I’m your friendly ghostwriter

To help your words ring true.

***

Call on me at any given time

I’ll spout the words you need,

To allow your clogged thoughts

To be expressed and set free.
