Haunted

The lighthouse that doesn't shine, is myself
The ships and boats, are the people I meet
The rocks and land, are the situations I'm in
The debris mixed and broken, are the lives involved
The haunted air, is that of the aftermath
The light that could have been, is advice well missed
The sea and current, is the pressure and influence
From other unlit lighthouses.

    JONATHAN, hope you do not mind me reading all your poems... it is only a few... and so far I have enjoyed what I've read tis far. About your poem: I think I know the feeling of self haunting. like the way you compared life of whats in the ocean scenery. A good list of expression. LINDA
