Facing the Ghosts

By IndyDom316

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

(see all I can see) it radiates off of you its the cold sweat you wake up with it drips down your back its cold numbs your spine (hear all I can hear) you cannot disguise it you stand and face me strong but it lurks in your shadow awaiting you to turn around (taste all I can smell) it follows you in the room I can smell it's stench before you enter the ghosts that are haunting you are driving you to madness (I can taste your fear) what are you so afraid of you have nothing to fear it lingers and walks behind you turn around and it dissapears only to emerge again when you feel strong and safe but it surfaces and surrounds you and you are nothing more than a waife you have come to me for help to make it all go away but this shadow will never leave you for you were shot dead, yesterday so cry and weep and moan if you will if that is what you feel but realize you cant feel anymore your corpse is as cold as steel so what is that ghost that lingers behind and causes you so much strife? it is the shadow of all the things you never faced in life.um......yeah. need comments...not sure....
