Ghost


A Poem by Michelle Raye
"
My last memory of you...
"

Warning
This story is rated Mature and may contain material unsuitable for readers under 18.

The room feels empty

My heart feels cold

I long for your warmth

I long for your hold

 

And suddenly I am taken

Back into the past

Back before the accident

For the moment that didn't last

 

I was moaning

Your hands clutching mine

You were touching

We were frozen in time

 

I felt you in me

Your body more than close

I felt your body

As your lips touched my nose

 

I gripped your hands

It had felt so new

You were so gentle

And it was then I knew

 

As we both reached the point

Where our souls became one

We moaned together

It couldn't be done

 

The memory suddenly twisted

As your body turned to smoke inside

I began to cry, "Don't leave me"

I cried, I cried, I cried

 

Our time was so short

Our hearts were so young

Immediately I knew

That you were the one

 

I sat in our room

In the bed we used to lay

I cried my heart and soul out

I hated the world today

 

Even after death

I felt your cold hands touch me

You're my ghost, my home, my lover

And you will always be my memory

Featured Review

"Ghost" starts out very strong... I could see a young girl who thoughts she was in "love" only to later realize her mistake. My favorite line is "As your body turned to smoke inside.."

owards the end it semd to go in another direction...the "voice" seemed to wander. The death part kinda confused me.

This also reminds me of a Krystal Meyers song called "The Situation"..."She's finding love in the back of a car when is it too late
Have they gone too far
She's having trouble drawing the line
But she knows she wants to feel beautiful

She struggles finding self-respect
She'll wake up feeling regret..."

I like "Ghost", and look forward to reading more from you :)
