Kelli White Poet Free verse

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

When you lose someone it is hard to forget at times. Kelli

Gershon Wolf April 28, 2020 at 1:25 PM Love affairs these days sure aren't what they used to be. Poignantly penned, Kelli!
