Ghosts

Visions in darkness, snapshots of a scream

spectres in my nightmares, haunting all my dreams

spirits forever wailing, an eerie deathly sound

an icy chill clings, like a mist all around

Ghosts in the night or just tricks of the light

bones weak and weary, they creak, as fear forces flight

the shadow in the corner, watching menacingly

waiting for me to close my eyes, What does it want with me?

The apparition appears, when the sun goes away

inside I scream silently, my voice too scared to stay

this phantom pervades my peace, shatters my self belief

crashes and clatters, like a poltergeist, gives me no relief

This visitor before me, invading all my thoughts

creeps into old memories, ties my brain in knots

until the sun comes up, cuts through the gloom

bathes the room in light, no more thoughts of doom

Thanks for reading.

Peace & Love.

Kyle.
