Her Ghost
9.2.2017
I’m a ghost
At least I’m hers
Just her ghost at most
But at least I am
Her ghost
What will it take
To make me opaque
When I’m with two
Two’s all she will see
When I’m with three
She’ll only see three
My only wish
That she could see me
A ghost in her eyes
Forever I’ll be
I’m a ghost
At least I’m hers
Just her ghost at most
But at least I am
Her ghost
What will it take
To make me opaque
A ghost when alone
A ghost in a crowd
A ghost in her eyes
Is all I’m allowed
Not lost in the shadows
Not covered in shroud
A ghost in her eyes
Is all I’m allowed
Why can’t she see me
Can’t hear
Or can’t feel me
Looks only for what she wants
Not getting what she needs
Someone who sees her for her
Not who everyone else believes
Someone who sees her like me
They see what they want to see
But they don’t see her
So she’s a ghost like me
Just waiting to be seen
Still to her
A ghost
Forever I’ll be
I’m a ghost
At least I’m hers
Just her ghost at most
But at least I am
Her ghost
What will it take
To make me opaque
‘Til then I remain
Her ghost
