Image for the poem Ghost

Ghost

your hushed hidden clawing
In my night
Reverberates to screeching
Out of sight
Haunting through this aching life
Persistent loss
Yet I miss unspoke permissions
To sense your cold wisps Tonight
Belief wains
As e’en the phantom ghost
Falls silent
In the Dark

I still reside
Within your soundless dungeon
Where it seems that e’en your ghost
Dare not to tread

Would you return
With vampiric kiss
To consume my need?
Return
Be more than just
a spectre
In my head
Be a pulsing living breathing
Love
In my bed
Ghost of my favorite memories
I wait for you
In red
