Ghost 2 Poem by Hazel Connelly

When I returned to the crossroads
To meet this raven haired ghost
Lost in thought,
I stared at the madness
Lurking in the darkness before daylight.

All around the shadows gather
Then your ruby red lips
Brushed against my cheek
In a strange haze of shock
I call your name
Again you are gone.

A cascade of tears
Fell down my face
You came and Taunted,
I only wanted to say goodbye.

While deaths shadows
Looms over me
I'm drowning in sadness
My broken heart crying.

While searching dark
Shadows in the night
I know now you
Are a child of the moon.
