I Am Sleeping With the Ghost

I am sleeping with the ghost 
Waging war on proper diction 
Everything is lost - I miss my mind the most 
''Tell me why your smile melt with confusion? '' 
As she stares through me she said 
My trembling foot on the precipice of indecision 
Now I am trapped without aid
Tears rolling down while I am sitting in this chair 
''Shut up! I know you don't like me '',  she said 
My heart in the fiery spiral of a vortex called despair
