Echoes

Spirits haunt me

in my fear they delight

I see them at night

they walk my room

illuminated by full moon

I can hear them sighing

moaning, a hideous groan as I shy

Under the covers of midnight's lonely sky

Ghosts screech around my face

my heart starts to pace

this cold chill stings

goosebumps, pinpricks on skin

icy cold fingers reaching

tearing at heart strings

the memories they bring

They glow in the dark,

against a backdrop of lost stars and distant hearts

I envision the bloom of delicate streams

but all I get is ghosts of those that depart

forever to haunt my vision

walking through the gloom

of my nightmare screams

Ghosts lurk these halls

they prowl these streets

devils chasing ready to pounce

always out to leap

knock me off my feet

wrapped in golden chains

the dream stealing girl flows

through my head like a hurricane

as I weep openly into my hands

a cold chill blows

running seems like the only way to make my stand

fleeing time’s trickling sands

Visions taunt me

haunting voices talk free

they speak in tongues

but I know the words are unfriendly

floating through my room - they never leave

they hover just above me, as I try to sleep

the girl with golden hair

her chains tied to my mind

blurred outline echoes

of memories left behind

Thanks For Reading.

Peace & Love.
