The Ghost In the Computer
I know to stay away.
It happens every time.
The hurt, the pain, the memories.
Its like a magnet it draws me closer and closer.
So is it Deja vu or past lives?
Or just ghosts of the past?
They seem to always find me.
My heart breaks.
They left too soon.
The lights flicker.
A penny, a feather or,
The room gets cold showing someone is here.
I hear the computer beeping,
Please don't be broken.
I look and see "Help me"
Just a simple message for her husband,
See the doctor.
Then two days later he had surgery,
To repair the widow maker in his heart.
The Ghost in my Computer
Is an angel in disguise.
