To the Ghost Who Haunts My Heart

It's like...

You've been there

In my darkest moments

Forever

Or at least

It seems that way to me

But your presence

Is almost like

An absence

Are you there?

Or am I dreaming

Of a time

Before?

I can feel you

Here with me

Your voice

It echoes in the chambers

Of my heart

And in my mind

And in my memory

Driving me to the brink of madness

And bringing me back

To the shores of sanity

The whispers of your love

Are a taunting promise

On the horizon

Like a glint of gold

Shimmering treasures

In a sunset

Dancing

On a wave

Out of reach

But just in sight

If you only know

Where to look.

About the Creator

Maia Gadwall the metAlchemist

I fell in love with speculative fiction and poetry many years ago, but I have precious little time to write any. Then, I went crazy and started a cult called metAlchemy, or meta alchemy. I revere energy of all brands, esp. good, kind chaos.
