Your Ghost

 



I see you, in this moment.


You're hurting, but even while in the rain, your pain isn't getting washed away.

You have your back to me but I want you to look at me.

I hold your hand, you stiffen.


I turn you around.

You're afraid because I'm making you feel.

And you don't want to.

I lock eyes with you and smile.

I raise my hand to your cheek and I can't tell if the wetness is still the rain or now your tears.

I dance in the rain and you watch me.

I see a faint smile dusting the corner of your lips.

I don't want your ghost, I just want you.

They weren't any people I knew. I looked around; it seemed like a basement of some kind. They kept some wine bottles in cribs on the wall. We were in a wine cellar. "What was so special about this place that you had to gag me and cove...

There is nothing appealing about the appearance of a coconut, but on the inside... On the inside is sweetness, pureness and softness. One entity and yet different from two perspective. A person may seem very hard on the surface, by your standards a very tough wild human being, but he feels too just like you do. In fact, he might be softer than what most might think. Have you ever thought about why he does the things he does, why he's arrogant and acts out? Maybe more than an over inflated ego is a softness, a sore part he's trying to hide. The key is understanding people though it's not always easy, 'cause you need patience and love; two very scarce things these days. I'm not excusing them but I just think, there is a reason for eve...
