I am holding your invisible hand,
Waiting and hoping,
That one day I might feel your warm hand against mine.

You are my ghost.
And I want to see you,
But every time I turn my head,
You become a whisp.

I can almost smell you minty breath,
Breathing gently on my face.

I can almost hear your voice,
Calling out my my name.

I can almost see your fluffy hair.

But when I lift up my hand,
I only catch air.

When I go to feel your nose,
I feel nothing.

When I turn my head to face you,
I see nothing.

It was all in my head.

When I reach out to grab your hand,
All I grab is a lonely heart.

Where are you?

Why do you stand from afar?

Why can't you just embrace me already?


You are my personal ghost.
