Ghost Lover

Haunted by your ethereal frame Wordless wander always a game And yet at times I feel you close Scents of cigarettes tickle my nose The hair will raise upon my neck I spy a shadow it seems suspect Though you passed so long ago My search for love I must forgo I lie upon our empty bed Pull A pillow as if it were your head Caress it gently and kiss it so Tears stream down for long ago

Pure Bliss! The rhymes also accentuates your creativity and message. "I lie upon our empty bed Pull A pillow as if it were your head" That sums up the Ghost lover.. Great, great, great piece here.
