Dancing with Demons

the ghost tell me they can take me away from this;
let me have all the little things i've missed.


i can live forever in a dream,
even if life isn't really what it seems.



i don't have to know, you're really gone.


every morning, we could greet the dawn.


everything that i wanted could be mine.


all i have to do is give them a sign.



we could do all the things we ever planned,
a walk in the city, a night in the sand.


& though it'd be love, it'd never be you.


only the ghosts, to get me through.



i hesitate, they wait for me.


i wonder what else life could be.


tomorrow i'll give the future a chance,
but tonight, the ghosts and I will dance.

Wow. I love this! I know exactly what you're saying and it's so strong! I'm not good with poetry at all but I understood this and I love how you made everything rhyme. That made it just so much more fun to read. It makes me think about my life as of right now! I have nothing critical to say about this. It's wonderful!

This is my first time reading any of your work. I can tell that you are a very creative person through your writing. I am interested to read more of your work.

The closure of this piece is dynamic (as you live for the moment, knowing you have a tomorrow).

Well written!

That was nice prosing you got there. At first, I thought it was going to be just like one of those crazy demonic writings, but this one is a real bit different from the rest; Nice and smooth...

So, it's a great read and it's all still good tho...
