Ghost In You

Mirror you kept inside of me
  Your face I slept with me
Smiles you brought for me
  Your love I painted as me

I can hear your thoughts
  and I'm always beside you
I can sense your emotions 
  and I'm always near you
You don't see me
  but you believe in me
You think I'm always around
  but never see me
I come and go faster than you
  and never late before you
Isolate yourself 
  and I can never reach you
I can penetrate, 
  only if you let me through
I can be warm or cold
  always young, not old 
To caress you each day
  is what I always pray
I will always breathe for you
  the way you breathe for me
I will only stop loving you
  if you cease believing in me

I don't use words when I speak
Only weather sends signs, either low or at my peak
To keep you mine all day and night
I'm the ghost in you with might 
Your life, my soul I keep
Your soul, my spirit so deep!
