Ghostly Encounters

Ghost hiding in the 
House, Playing tricks and making noise
On the 
Staircase walking  up and down, activating them, 
Toys.
Laughing crying, screaming 
Yelling, knocking on the doors.

Evil and good, dark and light shining on the floors.
Never knowing what to expect on
Countless endless nights,
On the water in the woods they take great delight.
Under branches on their stones, buried in there graves,
No one can imagine the energy that 
They crave.
Endless dreams of them visiting, loved ones from the past,
Remembering them is easy to do but dreams they never last.
Someday we will be a ghost, a spirit in the night, screaming yelling telling stories
    Shining down our light.
