Haunting By Your Love
Give up the ghost, my love, my life—
And return my kiss into light.
Breathed of you, I’ll exhale back—
Clasp the chivalry of lack.
My life, my love, for you was an endless need
For you on my heart to always feed.
Your wings still flit in my chest—
When I sleep I cannot rest.
By night is when I heard your gift's choir
That bled away the ragged hours.
Something took you and pillaged my home—
I’m hung back by my shadow alone.
