Pj Gongora Poet Rhyme

The Ghost

I see you crying in a corner
In your pajama before you sleep
The room becomes warmer
Little by little as you peep.

You wiped your tears and said,
"I too was buried deep",
Then walk towards the bed
"By a promise I was not able to keep".

You stare at yourself in the mirror
Then utter in a hoarse voice
"Now I can see myself clearer
For you already made a choice."

"To acknowledge that I was you
And confront me as a friend
For I am a part you once knew
That would cause your end."

Now I come to recognize
I am the ghost that haunts me;
I see myself right before my eyes
That person is who I used to be.
