To Be a Ghost

what would it be like to be a ghost
to float around and no body know,s
to hang around and wait on you
to give you the scares when you go to loo,

no one can see me in the day
as this is when a sleep away
waiting till night to fall 
so i can come out the wall, 

floating around from room to room
shaking chains and shouting boo,
to have a laugh and see your face
when you see a ghost scaring all over the place,

floating around and on the roof
wanting you to know that ghost are true,
scaring you half to death
making you put 
a pillow over your head, 

wonder if people can really see
if i was a ghost a wonder if i can pee,
am all white and a shadow to
you never know 
when a will haunt you, 

just to sit and have a laugh
even scare you when your in the bath, 
to float around and not use stairs,
in the dark with no fears, 

wish a was a ghost so i could see
every move you make but you cant see me, 
to wait till you are going to sleep
the give you a fright and not smile at me, 
to scare you half to death,
to make you hide under your bed, 

i am a ghost thats pure and white,
am not the kind that really gives you a frieght,
you may all may know my name
i am casper, the friendly  ghost 
and still the same,,
