Ghost

All my orchids now

Pull me away

Carry the weight

Follow wild flowers, float into light

Fill in the sky

In the quickness I am defined, grasping for life

Boring deeply into my mind

Now I see the ghosts

They have outgrown me

They are deserted

Ribbon swing, wrapped, bundled leaves

Beg me to rest

Beg me to stay

In the courage I left behind you are alive

In the forage I couldn’t find you are designed

To blur the white to black and back

To reach up and touch

To know the truth and never look back

Running towards you with a hole in my head

I can see much clearer now

I’m the one leaving

It was my fate just to carry you in

I can see much clearer now

But I’ll never understand
